Sheryl Underwood is Opening Up Her Radio Show to Members of Black Fraternities and Sororities

Comic legend and former Grand Basileus of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. just announced that she will be opening up the Sheryl Underwood Radio Show to chapters of Black fraternities and sororities who are interested in doing public service announcements to help the community.

The Sheryl Underwood Radio Show airs in 59 markets around the United States and reaches over 4.2 million people. We at Watch The Yard would like to commend Sheryl for opening up her platform to not only just members of her sorority but the entire Divine 9 community.

“Being on the public airwaves is a privilege, but with it comes a responsibility as servants to mankind. We all have to do our part,” Underwood stated.  “We know that there are a lot of great organizations working diligently to improve our communities and our world. We want to do our part to help them spread the word and share their message. Public broadcast media is one way that we can demonstrate our commitment and support of those “Doing Good In The Neighborhood.”

If your chapter has an issue that they are passionate about spreading awareness for the greater good of the public, we highly suggest that you take this into consideration. Having members of Black fraternities and sororities on air not only helps the people that these PSA’s are targeted at, but it also pushes, promotes and shines a light on the powerful culture of Black greekdom.

The PSAs need to be 30 or 60 seconds long and will air during the radio show across the country. According to the website, the PSAs must do the following:

• Promote events and activities that have a local, state or national appeal
• Promote or build brand awareness of a non-profit, governmental agency and/or civic organization or initiative

Public Service Announcements may be submitted as Pre-produced 30-60-second Spots or as Live Read Scripts for the SUR crew to read on air.

If you are an undergrad chapter and have any broadcast journalism or communications majors in your chapter, we highly suggest they submit a PSA for your chapter as a way to beef up their resume.

If you are interested in doing this, record a 30 or 60 second PSA and email the audio file to emailus@sherylunderwoodradio.com.
