We're in the final hours of WEMU's spring pledge drive, with about $10,000 to go to reach our goal of $200,000.
To everyone who has called, emailed, and mailed donations we thank you so much. If you haven't made your pledge yet, there's still time.
Uncertainties in the federal funding outlook make it not only essential to make this goal of $200, 000 but to exceed it. We don't know where WEMU is going to land when all of this shakes out but we DO know that our position gets stronger with every pledge that is made.
Whether you give because of independent fact-based journalism, 40 years of jazz on the radio, blues at 3:00, or any other reason, your support is critical to the present and future success of WEMU.
Pledge for two tickets to the Blues Barbecue with Laith Al-Saadi. Or for a limited-edition 40th-anniversary hoodie. Maybe you'd like to honor someone with a day sponsorship on WEMU. Or page through the book that comes with an incredible 10 CD box set from Ella Fitzgerald. You know your reasons more than anyone else. All we're asking is for you to just pledge. Stand up and advocate for what matters to you: your community NPR station.
And we thank you.
