Northwest Public Broadcasting now has a weekly audience of 200,000 listeners, more than ever before!

This is exciting.

Less encouraging are our membership numbers, which have not grown proportionally to listenership.

Why does this matter?

Think of it this way. You go to a game – in a stadium full of enthusiastic fans. But only a small percentage of those attending actually PAID to get in. Without ticket revenue, the sport will eventually suffer.

If you don’t pay your fair share, it is difficult for your team to do its best.

The thing is, it’s really simple to do your part – just buy a ticket! And what if you could set your own price for the ticket!

That’s what you get in public radio. You decide the price of your ticket…that is to say, your membership.

Any amount you donate makes you a member, and your participation supports NWPB and NPR, to allow them to keep being YOUR source of news, music and inspiration.

You’ve been listening for a long time….but you have never made a donation. Change that NOW – become a member. After all, you know exactly what you’re supporting – and the amount you donate is entirely up to you.

And pass this on to your friends who you know listen but may not be members. 

Go Team!
