Hey friends,

We are in the midst of our most important fund drive to date at 90.9 The Bridge. As you know, the petty criminal in the White House has eliminated all funding to public media. Stations depend on listeners and federal funding for all of the top shelf programming we provide on the airwaves

Educational, entertaining and vital.

I hope you’ll take a minute and pledge your support. Any amount truly helps keep programs like Sonic Spectrum and World Cafe on the air.

I will be asking for your support tonight from 6-8pm. The drive runs through Thursday so anytime is the right time to support your Indie Alternative in Kansas City.
