The Summer Stealth Drive IS ON - Support WHQR

YOU DID IT!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH TO THE MANY SUPPORTERS WHO GAVE ADDITIONAL GIFTS OR FIRST TIME GIFTS TO HELP WHQR RAISE OUR SUMMER GOAL WITHOUT INTERUPTING PROGRAMMING! YOU ARE THE BEST!

Here at WHQR, our Summer Drive is sounding very different – that’s because it is the Summer Stealth Drive and it's going on right now!

We’re trying to meet our summer goal of $30,000 without interrupting programing. It seems like a crazy idea, but your donation will make it possibleIn past summers, your gifts have allowed WHQR to completely cancel the on-air pledge drive. 

Why do we do this? Because we love the programming just like you do, and we want to be able to bring it to you in its entirety, without interruptions! Make your gift today and help us meet our goal and we won't have to have a traditional pledge drive. This is the fundraiser. It’s time to give.

We have some fantastic giveaways scheduled from the end of June through mid July. We’ll be giving away a Gift Cards to local businesses, Dinners at excellent restaurants, plus a Tech Pack of an Apple Watch Eton Weather Ratio and a Table Top HD Radio.

We’re really excited about this approach to fundraising, and we hope you are too. Help us make history again by meeting our summer goal of $30,000 with zero program interruptions!

Thank you very much for your past support and for being such a great friend to HQR News 91.3fm and Classical HQR 92.7fm.
