WSHU Supporter Dreams Big for Station's Future

Nearly every day, Stephen Corman turns on his radio and tunes in to WSHU. He especially loves the Saturday lineup.

"It's not just syndicated NPR programming," Stephen explains. "WSHU does a great job with news, often tying in local interest to national news."

Stephen first got hooked on WSHU through his late wife, Betsy, who would even stream the station while out of town. They were so impressed with WSHU that they were shocked when they toured the station three years ago.

"The studio was held together with duct tape, chewing gum, lots of wiring and splices, plus a dedicated crew of talented people," Stephen remembers. "I thought, 'If they can do such a good job with what they have to work with, then they should be able to do an even better job with the right tools.'"

To help WSHU improve upon its success and afford the right tools, Stephen became a committed donor. Most recently, Stephen decided to double the amount of his legacy gift to help sustain WSHU into the future. Because he is a longtime fan who has befriended staff members, it's no surprise that Stephen considers WSHU to be family.

"I'm humbled to be part of it," he says. "It makes me feel empowered to know that I am part of a cause for the greater good for all of us."
