It’s Radiothon time at WRUW!

On April 5th, we’ll kick into high gear for Radiothon 2021. After a year away from fundraising, we’ll be turning on the mics and asking for listener support to keep our lovely little station growing over the next year.

Our success is in YOUR hands!

Our last fundraiser was in April of 2019.  Here’s a brief summary of the results:

  • $54,882 received in 2019
  • Average donation:  $95
  • More than 450 listeners made donations

That was down a bit from 2018 when we broke $65,000 pledged (and received a whopping $63,753 of that amount)!

Since we didn’t have a fundraiser in 2020, we’re hopeful we can reach that $65,000 milestone again!  So, our 2021 goal:  $65,000!

But ARE YOU READY?!

When your Radiothon show rolls around will you be poised and confident to ask listeners for money? … or will you be tongue-tied and terrified?

Never fear … this site will help you prepare!

I’ve created this mini training site to help you be better prepared for the upcoming event, April 5th through April 11th, 2021. The goal is to help you gain some confidence … some reassurance … and some guidance for having a successful Radiothon show.

But remember to use your brain, too

I encourage you to read and apply the information on these pages and do something with the knowledge you gain. Remember this …

The universal truth of all knowledge:
What you know means nothing.
What you DO with what you know can change your life.

If you just read these pages and say “Gee that’s nice stuff”, but you don’t do anything with what you read … than you’ll be wasting your time.

Help WRUW have another fantastic fundraiser!
