STAR 88.3 Gives Love in Greenville
Greenville, OH – She was told in the sixth grade that she would end up
in a wheelchair, maybe not even make it to graduation. Most
people would give up and stop trying. Not Asia Sykes. She
graduated this year from Greenville High School, not only walking, but
on the swim team, a cheerleader, and a lifeguard. She has a great
GPA and already has college courses under her belt. The sky is
the limit!
STAR 88.3 is Greenville and Darke County’s local Christian radio station at 88.9.
“Several times a year, we take nominations for something we call Give
Love,” explains Naomi Cantrell, Community Representative for STAR
88.3. “This year’s graduates didn’t get the usual celebration, so
we decided to find one we could surprise in a big way.
STAR 88.3 picked Asia Sykes to receive a surprise visit this
week. She received a big basket of goodies from STAR 88.3, Anne’s
Avon, Bread of Life Bookstore, and EUM Church.
“It was a blessing to see Asia so surprised and delighted,” Cantrell
reflects. “It is definitely one of my favorite parts of what we
do!”
STAR 88.3 is run by STAR Educational Media Network and based in Fort
Wayne, IN, with signals around Northeast and East Central Indiana,
Northwest and West Central Ohio, and Southern Michigan.
According to STAR’S President and CEO Melissa Montana, STAR “wants to
build a deep connection with the local community, reaching out to
churches, ministries, and Christian owned businesses to help make the
area we’re serving an even better place to live.”
STAR Educational Media Network was formed in 2009 and has frequencies
in Fort Wayne, Angola, Auburn, Kendallville, Richmond, Union City and
Warsaw. Its mission is to provide uplifting and encouraging music that
is safe for the whole family.
