BANGALORE: To aid the Karnataka State government in flood relief collection, Big 92.7 FM Bangalore has fabricated a special bus at its own cost having pictures and photos of the flood affected people and their belongings pasted on the bus. The Big FM bus will do the rounds of Bangalore collecting funds from donors for the state government.
Says Big 92.7 FM Cluster Head Karnataka and Kerala Sunil Kumaran, …Many people who wish to donate do not have information about how and where to contribute. We have been receiving many calls for guidance on this and hence hit upon the idea of preparing a special bus that will go around the city for collection of funds. We will accept payments by checks and demand drafts only favouring â€?Calamity Relief Fund of Karnataka’ – 8235-00-111-0-02….
The bus will be lit up to catch the eye-balls of the commuters and will have RJ’s who will go on air live from the spot. The RJs will appeal to the people to donate money for the flood victims with the tagline â€?Light up their lives this Deepavali, Donate to â€?Calamity Relief Fund of Karnataka’. The RJs will keep listeners informed about the timing and the venues at which the bus will be located. Donors will also be called on-air to appeal to and encourage others to contribute towards flood relief.
