TV fund raiser for Philippines Monday
The Cooperating Aid Agencies and the Public Broadcasting , RTL and SBS will organize a TV fund-raiser on Monday, November 18th for the victims of the hurricane in the Philippines.
Host Herman van der Zandt will take part in the fund-raiser on behalf of the NOS.
It will not be some great evening filling entertainment program, but instead the focus will be on the Institute for Sound and Vision as Center of Activity. All public and commercial radio stations will broadcast from there, states Gerard Timmer, program director of the Public Broadcasting.
