"Mississippians are known nationally for their generosity. This fact is put to action by the people who volunteer for Mississippi Public Broadcasting. We (MPB) and the citizens across the state are most fortunate to be on the receiving end of such cheerful and unselfish service provided by our volunteers," said MPB Executive Director Marie Antoon. "To these special people, the giving of themselves is not a job but a lifestyle, and may I add, one that should be commended. I thank each of you for lending a helping hand-you brighten our days."

MPB volunteers assist during MPB's radio drive times and television pledge campaigns, along with providing their services to help with various agency needs throughout the year.

A large number of MPB volunteers donate their time through the MPB Radio Reading Service , which is in its 20 th year of existence. This service features radio broadcasts of newspapers, books and magazines for persons who are unable to read the printed word, either because of visual handicaps or because of other physical handicaps, such as the inability to turn pages.
