Bay
Islands Voice will serve as a venue for growth and strengthening
of the Roatan, Utila & Guanaja communities. We will strive to
promote a positive image of the Bay Islands, and at the same time
report on issues that concern local population. We will make all
efforts to provide a dependable venue for good journalism and exchange
ideas that would improve human condition on the Islands.
We will report on the culture, news, spiritual
life, sports, education, business and provide useful and accurate
information to the best of our abilities. VOICE will provide a venue
for expression of ideas, encourage community programs and show alternatives
to Roatan's, Utila's and Guanaja's youth. We will develop and promote
a variety of journalistic skills and knowledge among Bay Islanders
through our work, example and internship programs.
Bay Islands Voice will make all efforts to
improve understanding and build confidence in the life on the Islands.
We will help in developing a sense of pride among our community
and encourage investment. Even though we are starting up as humble
black and white English language publication we will look for ways
of including Spanish and Italian writing in the future color pages
of our publication.
We
will make mistakes and we will never be perfect, but we promise
to improve with time and respond to your comments. We ask for your
understanding as we will face inevitable problems of keeping deadlines,
making editing choices, dealing with printing issues and bowing
to acts of God.
The success of this publication should go
hand in hand with the success of this community. We ask for your
support through readership, advertising and contribution of ideas
as we embark on this journey.
