    Posted by Robin on February 10th, 2013

    We’re pretty excited to have had $10, 000 pledged so far but we’re still a long ways from our goal of $53, 000. You can show your support for community radio in Winnipeg by calling in now – 204-774-6877. Phone operators are standing by and can help you decide what level to donate at by letting you know about all the great incentives we have.

    Please note that pledge payments and incentive pick ups have moved to the UW Bookstore in the AnX, the old Greyhound Bus terminal. Their hours are 9:30am – 5pm weekdays and 10am – 4pm on Saturday. Free parking for pledge pick up is available off Colony or you can park at the meters on Balmoral.

    Thanks to those of you that have pledged already, we just broke $8600 on our way to our $53K goal.

    For as little as $35 you can help us out and get a Friends of CKUW card which gives you insider access to discounts and/or special offers at all of the participating businesses. Or if you’d rather, we can issue a tax receipt in any denomination. Call now – 204-774-6877 – or go online to donate to your favourite show.

    We have had $7100 pledged since yesterday. That’s amazing. Thank you.

    We have a goal of raising $53K so ring those phones at 204-774-6877. You can also pledge securely on-line

    This year, because CKUW is celebrating 50 years as a student group on campus, the toques and hoodies we have for you as incentives at $120 and $160 respectively sport the gold 50th logo.
