Founders Club

The MAB Foundation wishes to thank and recognize the visionary broadcasters who are members of the Founders Club.

One way to help ensure that Michigan continues to have a strong pool of talented people eager to enter the broadcasting industry for years to come is through a donation to the MAB Foundation Founders Club.

MAB Foundation Founders Club Levels


Joining the Founder Club at one of these levels ensures the future of the MAB Foundation’s scholarship program. All monies are safely invested and restricted for only scholarship use. This means that all donations to the Founders Club will go directly into securing the future of the broadcasting industry by honoring and supporting our student and future professional broadcasters. Subsequent Founders Club donations may be added to current levels to increase your recognition. Thank you for considering!

How does this work? All scholarship recipients are selected by our partnering Michigan colleges and universities and exemplify the best future broadcasting workforce in the nation. See the current list of scholarship winners at the official MABF scholarship website.
