Support your public radio station ahead of the crowds

You listen to WRVO every month, every week, many even every day. You rely on 89.9 FM, our app, website or other transmitters across upstate New  York for your news and information.

And we rely on you in return.

Listeners and area businesses make up the largest source of WRVO Public Media's funding -- the money we use on a daily basis to bring you the programs you appreciate.

Now is the time to donate, ahead of the crowds, to ensure your public radio station continues to broadcast "Morning Edition," "Fresh Air," "The Best of Car Talk," "All Things Considered," "Weekend Edition," and more. If you donate before our fundraiser, you'll be contributing to the WRVO member pool.

member pool (n.): A group of committed WRVO members who donate with the hope that it will entice others to do the same. Member pool donations are used in challenge hours during the fundraiser as an added incentive to new or current members. "I need to donate now! It's a challenge hour, thanks to the WRVO member pool!"

Donate today, ensure WRVO is there for you everyday. We depend on listeners like you.

And don't forget, our fall fundraiser is early this year! It starts Friday, September 9 and ends Saturday, September 17. 

Recent cuts to federal funding are challenging our mission to serve central and upstate New York with trusted journalism, vital local coverage, and the diverse programming that informs and connects our communities. This is the moment to join our community of supporters and help keep journalists on the ground, asking hard questions that matter to our region.

Stand with public media and make your gift today—not just for yourself, but for all who depend on WRVO as a trusted resource and civic cornerstone in central and upstate New York.
