Summer Fund Drive is On! August 6-13!

Our Summer Fund Drive will run from the Saturday Morning Coffeehouse on August 6, to the following week’s Saturday Morning Coffeehouse on August 13. A very, very big goal of this summer’s drive is to get New Members and Sustaining Members, because they are so important for the future of the station. The more members the strong we are financially, so please do what you can! Your support makes it all possible, so many thanks for contributing to the programming you love – and we love creating!

Also, if you have the ability and desire to offer a generous gift of $500 or more as a matching challenge to other donors, our Development Director, Maggie Garfield, would love to talk with you. Please email her at [email protected].
