VCY America

Voice of Christian Youth America, aka, the VCY America Radio Network, is a conservative Christian organizational ministry based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which plays only sacred music and spirituals through all of its' broadcast outlets. Originally known as, "Milwaukee Youth For Christ," and later, "Greater Milwaukee Youth For Christ," it left the national YFC organization, in 1973, and became known as the "Wisconsin Voice of Christian Youth" (WVCY), until 1995, when it changed to its' present name. It produces 15-20 VCY America-owned radio stations mostly across the upper midwest, depending on the source, [ [http://www.vcyamerica.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=73/ Broadcast Stations] ] ["Crosstalk" - April 7, 2008] which are carried on the VCY America Radio Network. This does not include its' Internet site and "translator" and "satellator" stations. VCYAmerica radio also provides programming via satellite to stations around the country. The network also runs a Christian television station out of Milwaukee, known as WVCY-TV30, which broadcasts 16 hours a day, seven days a week. The broadcast network is 100 percent supported through listeners' donations. The ministry also runs a Summer camp, in Hillsboro, Wisconsin, called, "Trail Ridge Ranch."
