During the month of May, FlexRadio ran a sales promotion where-in a percentage of all radio sales were donated to Meals on Wheels Central Texas in support of the organizations growing needs during the pandemic. In addition, outreach was provided to encourage individuals and employees to donate on their own. Not only did this campaign raise $11,000 for MOWCTX, but it raised awareness with the Central Texas amateur community and employees of the benefits of MOWCTX programs to our senior and homebound communities.
