April 23, 2022 - Earth Day Nonprofits
In honor of Earth Day, today's show features nonprofits whose mission is environmental conservation and outdoor recreation – along with a for-profit business that's helping support their work. BUZZ creator Michael Hemphill talks with:
- New River Land Trust, which helps landowners preserve the rural character of their property in perpetuity.
- LEAP (Local Environmental Agricultural Project), which manages farmer's markets, mobile markets, community gardens and a community kitchen in support of local growers and low-income consumers.
- Southwest Native, which is donating a portion of proceeds in April 2022 to support the environmental work of FRIENDS of the Blue Ridge.
- Clean Valley Council, which promotes conservation and sustainability.
And AAF Roanoke president Carrie Cousins brings the "buzz" with a free Earth Day-themed marketing tip for nonprofits.
Are you a nonprofit with an event that we could help promote? Or a marketing problem we could help fix? Contact us and we’ll share on an upcoming episode.

The United States has more than 1.5 million nonprofits — from homeless shelters, food banks and rescue squads to children’s choirs, science museums and animal refuges — that employ one out of every 10 Americans. Like any company, nonprofits have salaries and bills to pay, a budget to balance. They require money. And if enough people don’t know about them, don’t believe in them, don’t support them — in short, if they lack BUZZ — they suffer and die.
