Where does my pledge go?

It Stays Local & Supports Local Voices!
 

Your pledge helps us keep the lights on but it goes much deeper then that. Your donation not only keeps your favorite locally produced shows on air, it also gives our community an independent platform to share music & ideas.

When you donate, you're not just supporting the music and news programs you love - you're taking a stand to protect independent, local media that reflects the talents, needs and voices of our community. With federal funding for non-commercial stations under threat, we need your help more than ever. 

If KZFR has ever introduced you to your new favorite artist, helped you to feel connected to our community, or just made your day better, now’s your chance to give back.

Please, pledge to protect community radio today!
