This hustling world
WRIR’s Spring 2025 Fund Drive is now underway — right now we’re deep in this hustling world, hard at work toward raising $45,000 by Friday May 2nd to power Richmond Community Radio for another six months. Supporters like you have made WRIR possible for the last 20 years, and now is the time when we ask you to donate what you can afford, and what this marvelous, successful experiment in community-built media is worth to you.
You can become a monthly supporter at this link: https://bit.ly/3QnrP5H. Or make a one-time contribution here: https://bit.ly/3FnagN1. Or simply go to wrir.org to donate and to find out more about the Spring 2025 Fund Drive, including the premiums available to donors and the many events that are happening during the fund drive.
It’s been three weeks since I’ve played much new music on the show, owing to vacation and hosting two awesome on-air guests, so this week (Sunday April 20, 1:00-3:00 PM on WRIR, for two weeks afterwards at wrir.org/listen, and any old time at my podcast site) I’ll play nothing but excellent new releases and reissues I’ve heard lately.
The first $500 donated during Global A Go-Go will be doubled because I will personally match your gift — together, let’s raise $1,000 and more for Richmond Community Radio on this edition of Global A Go-Go! Thank you for your support, and long live Richmond Independent Radio!
