FOUNDER’S HELLO
Dear Friends, 
When I founded WCAI Public Radio I hoped it would bring our coastal communities together. Taking that leap of faith, now twenty years ago! I trusted that there would be people out there who would listen and would believe this was a good idea too. We did it together. And so…thank you for being a part of the Founders Circle. You lift us up and help us reach our lofty goals. Let’s stay connected through the station and these occasional updates about our staff and programming. You are the reason we are here. Thank you for all you do to support CAI. 
Jay Allison, 
Founder and Executive Producer, WCAI
Host and Producer, The Moth Radio Hour 
Sunday Evening Host, Arts and Ideas
