On May 1, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order titled "Ending Taxpayer Subsidization of Biased Media," which calls for the Corporation of Public Broadcasting to "cease direct funding to NPR and PBS, consistent with my Administration's policy to ensure that Federal funding does not support biased and partisan news coverage. The CPB Board shall cancel existing direct funding to the maximum extent allowed by law and shall decline to provide future funding." The order also directs federal agencies to review and eliminate any existing grants or contracts that provide funding to NPR and PBS. What will be the impact to WHRO Public Media and other local PBS and NPR stations in Virginia and across the nation? Top leadership at WHRO provide insight, perspective and answers to your questions.

African Americans donate approximately $11 billion annually to nonprofit organizations and charities — yet the person asking for the donation is most often not Black. According to the Association of Fundraising Professionals, 89% of fundraising professionals are white, while only 4% are Black. That picture may be changing in Hampton Roads! We introduce you to three Black women who are changing attitudes on inclusion in philanthropy. Stephanie Cuffee, Christy Hunt, and Vivian Oden are engaging major donors and raising funds for their organizations.

A recently obtained memo by the Washington Post shows plans for deep cuts to the budget for the Department of Health and Human Services as the Trump administration prepares its 2026 fiscal year budget request to Congress. The memo calls for reshaping federal health agencies that oversee food and drug safety, manage the nation's response to infectious disease threats and drive biomedical research. According to the memo, public health programs that prevent childhood lead poisoning, work on heart disease, obesity, diabetes and smoking cessation would all be eliminated. In addition, rural healthcare would be hard hit with the elimination of funding for hospital flexibility grants, state offices of rural health, the rural residency development program and at-risk rural hospitals program grants.
