Thank You Local Nonprofits

Thank you to EVERYONE who volunteered to staff the phones during our "Pledge To Protect Community Radio" Spring 2025 Drive!

Especially to all of the local non-profit groups who answered the pledge line phones along with dedicated community members, programmers, committee and board members. 

Their volunteer time keeps community radio going strong which in turn gives everyone in our community a local, independent, non-commercial platform to share their talents & express their views.
