Supporting Classical Music

If you've been listening to the radio, you've probably heard that right now, it is the "Connecting Communities" fund drive.

We're asking listeners (including our online reader/listeners) to support West Virginia Public Radio with a donation, so that we can keep bringing you classical music, as well as the stories, interviews, calendars, ticket giveaways, commentary and everything else that we have online and on the radio.

Yesterday, when Jim Lange, Larry Groce, and I were announcing, Woogie, Walter, Peter, and Nancy were answering the phones and speaking to listeners who chose to support West Virginia Public Radio. Here's a view from behind the scenes. Thank you to volunteer Nancy Douglas for taking these pictures (she escaped being photographed by being the one with the camera)!

You too can be part of the fun by calling 1-800-723-4687 or by sending in your support through our website.

So that's where and who you're calling, when you dial 1-800-RADIO-87 to support West Virginia Public Radio. Are you a member yet?

Update: Thank you and congratulations! You made the $135,000 goal. We'll have final figures in a few days, which I'll make sure to get posted. Thank you for supporting classical music and West Virginia Public Radio!
