Radio
ATTENTION!
March 7, 2026, marked the final broadcast of the Ukrainian Educational and Cultural Center's Radio Program on the AM band, following the conclusion of our contract with WWDB-AM 860.
This change has been under discussion with the Radio Program Team for the past two years, as we explored the possibility of transitioning from traditional radio broadcasting to digital-only distribution. During this time, the program was also uploaded weekly to Dropbox for listener access, and episodes were archived through WWDB's digital portal.
At this time, the radio program will no longer air on WWDB-AM 860. The future format of the program is still under discussion, including the possibility of continuing through digital streaming and expanding access through popular online platforms.
We are sincerely grateful to WWDB-AM 860, The Multicultural Voice of the Delaware Valley, and to station manager Sam Spiser for their cooperation and support over the years. We also extend our appreciation to Mr. and Mrs. Hewka and all contributors to the UECC Radio Program for their many years of dedication, effort, and commitment.
While this marks the end of an important chapter on traditional AM radio, we remain hopeful that new opportunities may emerge for the program in a digital format that would provide listeners with greater flexibility, permanent access to archived episodes, and broader reach.
