August 26 (again...)

What is a Public Service Announcement? If you don't know what it is, Google it. In your own words, now tell me what it is? What are they used for? Can you recall an example of a PSA you've seen before?

Public Service Announcements are sometimes used for non-profit organizations who need sponsors or people to donate money to their cause. A PSA that I have heard frequently is a fundraiser for a non advertisement radio station.This radio station, KLOVE, is a contemporary Christian music station that is advertisement-free, therefor they need another income to keep their station running. During the commercials in between songs, they tell stories of people who need money and throw in that they would appreciate donations to their station as well.
