The generosity of KPR listeners was on full display last week during KPR's Summer Quiet Drive: thanks to their support, we raised $27,446, to be matched by a group of KPR challenge donors. Because of this, the station is able to end our fiscal year on a strong financial note. Thank you to everyone who contributed!
As we approach the end of another fiscal year here at Kansas Public Radio we want to thank all of our listener-members. KPR brings invaluable news, information, and music 24 hours a day. We broadcast trusted, insightful reporting that amplifies real voices, critical issues, and meaningful paths forward. We can’t do it without your support.
That is why we come to you, our loyal listeners, for the support we need to keep this station running strong, because your contributions, along with underwriting, now make up more than 84% of our annual budget.
We're in this together, so please consider making a pledge today to help us finish out this fiscal year securely. KPR is a listener-supported public radio station. Listeners help pay for the thought-provoking, well-crafted and informative programs. Listeners also pay for transmitters, computers, electricity - everything it takes to bring you those programs.
Join us starting Tuesday, June 25, when your pledge will be matched dollar-for-dollar by a group* of generous donors who have pledged $25,000. Donate online or give us a call at 888-577-5268. And thank you for your support of KPR!
