Elevated Worldwide Radio recently presented their first “Bring The Fun Back” Community Day that took place July 2, at West Penn Community Park.
The radio station founders wanted a way to bring the community together for a day of fun, and to unify as one against the violence that has been taking place within the streets of the city, and across the nation.
It’s not that they own an actual radio station, they produce their own show, and have an available app for iPhones that people can download to tune in. Co-founder Rich Burton said, “ I am a co- founder of Elevated Worldwide, our purpose is to uplift the community through Hip Hop culture. Three young African American males from the city of Pittsburgh, Rich Burton, Quentin Helvy, and Isaiah Williams said the Elevated Worldwide label came together because they were not only fed up seeing family and friends being hurt by violence and deaths around the city but also personally affected. The three of us decided that we needed to step up and make a change.”
All three founders were present at the free event for the communities of Pittsburgh.
“#PGHWeekend: Bring The Fun Back Community Day’ at the West Penn Community Park in Polish Hill was a big success. This event was for the city to come together for a good cause to stop the violence and to spread positivity throughout Pittsburgh,” Isaiah Williams said.
