Kansas Public Radio's fall membership drive is right around the corner, starting with our “Super Tuesday,” on Tuesday, September 20, when we'll have a dollar-for-dollar match to help raise an entire day's donations in only 90 minutes. We'll return on Friday, September 23, for a week's worth of fundraising.

Whether you are up for renewal, a lapsed member or a listener who hasn’t gotten around to becoming a member just yet, we hope you will support KPR during this very crucial membership drive. As daunted as we are by recent $100,000 budget cuts, we know that with 100,000 weekly listeners on our side, there is great potential for more community support.

Please consider contributing to KPR before the fund drive. We have an extra incentive to get your pledge in early. If we receive your gift on or before Friday, September 16, you will be automatically entered to win a pair of tickets and VIP passes to see Seven Things I’ve Learned: An Evening with Ira Glass at the Lied Center of Kansas on November 5.

*Technically, donations aren’t required for the Ira Glass ticket drawing, but a gift to KPR would sure be appreciated! Every penny protects the programming you depend on every day.
