Volunteer with KZFR

KZFR began broadcasting the summer of 1990, after years of hard work and grassroots efforts by very dedicated pioneers. For 25 years, KZFR has continued to enlighten, entertain and educate our listeners in support of community... Thanks to the teamwork of our awesome volunteers!

Want to become a KZFR Volunteer?

Awesome! First step is to fill out the Volunteer Questionnaire and send it to Leah (see contact info below). Next step is to attend a Volunteer Orientation. At the orientation you will learn about our Volunteer Policy and what kinds of things we need help with (staffing benefit shows, doing community outreach etc) plus you'll have an opportunity to let us know what special skills you'd like to offer.

The Volunteer Questionnaire...

Please, complete a Volunteer Questionnaire and email/snail-mail/hand-deliver it to us in downtown Chico.

Questions? Please, contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Leah T. McKean (530) 864.8202, leahmckean @ gmail.com
