2012 Fund Rally at the Bulldog center in Starkville, MS. |
The
2012 WJAZ fund rally presents an opportunity for supporters to contribute to
the stations success.
This year’s goal of the drive is
$50,000. The station also has a new company sponsorship program for $2,500 that
allows companies to be announced as sponsors 12 times each day.
WJAZ airs a lot of local
programming which focuses on news, culture and music. The funds raised go for programs
such as All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and Click and Clack. These
programs would have to be dropped if the $50,000 isn’t raised. The federal
government only provides 20 percent towards the stations operation budget.
It’s easy to become a member and anyone
can contribute to the stations progress. Patrons can pledge $25, $50, or $150. Patrons
will also receive different levels of gifts for their contribution.
Regular Programming during the
rally will be interrupted throughout the day to make appeals for money.
Listeners are urged to either call the station at 662-325-1234 or visit the stations
web site at www.mpb.org/starkville.
