Broadcasting, cooperating to provide for their own poor

Hi, If it talks about the choir, what is "Broadcasting" in this context?

I have some doubts with this phrase involving the word cooperating I thought to add the complete text about
the message ...

Church members cooperating to provide for their own poor

Cooperating- the people of the church is working together?
Do they mean in "Own poor" (Plural?) to the Chruch's members which are poor?
What is "Provide for" ?

Thanks ...

"Fresh-faced missionaries knocking on doors with a religious message; the Mormon Tabernacle
Choir broadcasting on Sunday mornings from Temple
1 Square in Salt Lake City; church members cooperating to provide
for their own poor; Brigham Young University students consistently being voted the most strait-laced
college students in the United States; tightly knit families teaching their children to
live clean lives: All these suggest that Mormons are happy, uncomplicated, kindly, and innocent
—if perhaps nai¨ve."

Not just economically, I suppose. It is a church group.
