WGTS Hosts Jerry and Summer Have fun with Micah Tyler

Story by Jerry Woods

WGTS 91.9 listeners gave from the heart again by sponsoring children in Haiti during a recent Micah Tyler concert in Virginia. For the last few years, WGTS has worked side by side with Holistic Haitian Alliance (HHA) to support the Kay Anj Village in Haiti. 

For three years the station helped to raise money for HHA by rappelling off the top of a hotel in Tysons Corner, Virginia, for an event called “Over the Edge.”  This year, the two organizations decided to do a benefit concert instead.
