Public radio, whose operation has been threatened by budget cuts under the Trump administration, needs listener donations more than ever. This summer, President Trump and Republicans in Congress moved to strip $500 million from public broadcasters.
WDET 101.9 FM, owned by Wayne State University, is running its fall fundraising campaign through midday Sunday.
The WDET website says:
After a tough summer for public media, we’re working hard to close the gap in our budget and keep your trusted news, music, and conversation strong.
Listener support has already helped us make progress, and now this fundraiser will play a critical role in reaching our fiscal year-end goal.
Now more than ever, members matter. You can make a difference with a one-time gift or by becoming a monthly sustaining member.
