<p>Signature Programmes: KasumelaKasuvanthu, Penne Unakkaka, Poonjolai, MakkalMandram,Vazhikatuhirom Community Participation: MOP CR targets nearby schools and slum areas and have formed listeners&rsquo; club among the school children and one among the women of the community. We have RJs from these clubs who are trained regularly. We have also formed women listener clubs in the community area, each such club is headed by a SHG coordinator as a team volunteer. We also involve the senior citizens living close to the radio station. Innovations in Format: Lot of public service announcements played overMOP Community Radio Station are framed in innovative formats such as music, skit, mimicry, VIP voices, vox-pop and telephonic interactions and interviews.</p>

<p>Funding and Partnerships Infrastructure development and procurement of technical items was by the college.</p>

<p>MOP Community Radio has created awareness on clean environment and global warming through a programme called SuthamSugatharam. Another example of impact made by the radio comes from the self help group whose members are now more aware of banking procedures and many women have begun their own small enterprise by taking bank loans. Kasumelakasuvandu, a programme for women&rsquo;s empowerment initiated in 2008, has brought together almost 2,500 women for celebrating the SamathuvaPongalfestival in 2012.&nbsp;</p>
