Submit PSA/Events
Interested in promoting an event? WTJU offers two free options:
Public Service Announcements: Promotion of your event both online and over our airwaves; these have stricter guidelines than calendar events.
Events: Events that go on our concert calendar, usually relating to one of our music departments or our public affairs department.
For promotion of an organization or a long-term event, consider underwriting. To learn more contact the station: wtju@virginia.edu or call (434) 243-8831.
Public Service Announcements
WTJU airs public service announcements (PSAs) for:
Non-profit organizations;
Those sponsoring an event to benefit a non-profit group;
Local schools, colleges and Universities; and
Student organizations.
There is no charge for this service but if you would like to have your announcement regularly scheduled for a block of time consider underwriting.
PSAs should be emailed to WTJU at wtju@virginia.edu. The subject line should be PSA with two or three words associated with the event. We no longer accept PSAs by phone, fax or mail. PSA should be sent to our office a minimum of one week before you want it to BEGIN airing.
