This is not a request for a donation but there is a link below.

Two DJ’s were on air doing a fundraising drive to overcome the $200,000 CPB Rescission last week . The DJ’s, not political very matter of fact, mentioned it several times. “If you already a member, we are asking for an additional donation”.

WNRN is a small public radio station in Charlottesville but the have frequencies all over the state. These are music lovers. I’ve heard hosts talk about “music meetings” where people bring in songs they’ve heard about they discuss if it can be available from their library. They don’t have a rotation. Great focused shows and an eclectic mix otherwise.
