WUVT (001)

WUVT would like to remind you not to drink and drive. It doesn’t matter if you’ve had one drink or ten. It doesn’t matter if you’re driving a hundred miles or just around the corner. Alcohol impairs your hand-eye coordination, and operating a motor vehicle while under its influence can be fatal to you, or somebody else. Do yourself a favor: If you think you might be drunk– you are, and shouldn’t be driving.

Red Cross (002)

Every two seconds, someone in the United States needs blood. You can do your part to help by giving blood at your local Red Cross Blood Drive. Just one donation can help save more than one person in need. You can visit www.redcrossblooddrive.org to find a blood drive near you.

Raft Crisis Hotline (007)

Need to talk? Raft Crisis Hotline offers 24/7 empathy and support. Whether you’re in a crisis situation or if you want to talk about your stressful day, trained volunteers are ready to listen. Call (540) 961- 8400 to speak with someone who cares.

Invasive Firewood (124)

To you, it’s just a piece of firewood, but to invasive insects, it’s a ticket to their next meal. Moving firewood long distances is dangerous for the forest wildlife. Fortunately, stopping these forest killing freeloaders is simple. Buying your firewood near where you’ll burn it, or gathering wood at your campsite if it’s allowed reduces the spread of invasive species. To learn more, you can visit dontmovefirewood.org.

Alcoholics Anonymous (707)

Do you find yourself drinking on days where you planned not to? Have you ever wondered if you have a drinking problem? If so, you’re not alone; there are plenty of others just like you that can help. You can attend an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting every night at 7:30PM, at 203 East Roanoke Street, Blacksburg, Virginia, a safe place for recovery.
