Building Futures Through Faith and Sound: The Greenwood Beat – WFPG and The WJM Foundation Announce Transformative Partnership
Tulsa, OK – June 2025 — The Greenwood Beat – WFPG is proud to announce a powerful and purpose-driven partnership with The WJM Foundation, a nonprofit youth organization founded by Minister Antonio McGlothin, Sr. Since its inception in 1996, The WJM Foundation has served as a sanctuary for youth seeking an alternative to the streets—offering faith-based guidance, music enrichment, educational support, and a message of hope that echoes through generations.
Now, in collaboration with The Greenwood Beat – WFPG, the Foundation’s mission is expanding with amplified reach and renewed commitment to our communities.
A Legacy of Love and Leadership
Founded by Minister Antonio McGlothin, Sr., The WJM Foundation became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in 2000. It was birthed out of a simple yet powerful desire—to provide a safe haven for youth, steering them away from violence, gangs, drugs, and negative influences by introducing them to the transformative power of music, literacy, sports, and above all, spiritual grounding through Christ.
At its core, the Foundation teaches children that they are not defined by their past or environment. “Build your future,” is not just a slogan—it’s a daily affirmation woven into every program and mentoring moment.
Uniting for Community Impact
This strategic partnership with The Greenwood Beat – WFPG, Oklahoma’s first woman-owned radio station on historic Greenwood Avenue, creates exciting new opportunities for outreach, engagement, and expansion. Together, the two organizations will launch innovative community programs centered around youth empowerment, broadcasting education, spiritual growth, and creative expression.
Key initiatives include:
-
General education tutoring and mentorship
-
Broadcast and music education programs
-
Community-based service connection hubs
-
Spoken word, DJ, and songwriting workshops
-
Faith-focused youth media segments airing on The Greenwood Beat
Through Hope Hop Multimedia, Minister McGlothin’s media and outreach arm, the mission is extended beyond the Foundation’s walls and into the airwaves, households, and neighborhoods. This joint effort brings the technology and tools necessary to empower our next generation—bridging the gap between available services and community access.
Faith, Purpose, and Possibility
Minister McGlothin believes that transformation starts with belief—faith in God, faith in self, and faith in the possibility of change. With this new collaboration, he envisions a “wall of love” spreading across the city, uplifting communities and creating a ripple effect of restoration and hope.
“Hope can be the driving force that turns hopeless atmospheres into positive outcomes.” – Rev. Antonio McGlothin, Sr.
The Greenwood Beat – WFPG is honored to stand with The WJM Foundation to promote peace, provide positive pathways for our youth, and create programming that echoes through the hearts of listeners everywhere.
