With respect for all peoples and their environments, our programming addresses the concerns and interests of those under-represented by other media. WELT-LP gives members of these groups a way to share news and music from around the world, bringing insight to their culture from all of Fort Wayne. The station's unique and diverse programming serves to broaden the listener's understanding of cultural and community perspectives to increase awareness and understanding, creating a tighter bond between the members of our community. Our unique programming runs the gamut, from Burmese, Latine, and Arabic language shows, music of every genre to live call in programs with your favorite DJ’s.
WELT-LP broadcasts commercial-free radio that's produced and delivered by your friends, family, neighbors, concerned members of your community, and most importantly – YOU! Tune into 95.7 FM for news about politics and community issues that affect your daily life. Enjoy music and entertainment performed by local, regional, and national artists in Fort Wayne venues and live in the WELT-LP studios. For the real voice of Fort Wayne your choice is WELT-LP’s quality local programming.
WELT-LP volunteers have fun providing a variety of needed services to keep your community radio station alive and kickin'. Volunteers do everything here from paperwork to programming; recycling to refiling records; and during our on-air Marathons, it's the volunteers who put the "fun" in fundraising.
