It's fundraiser time again! And in fear that people are sick of accordions, we're disguising a special episode of our show under the happy rubric of the ukulele to sneak some support we might not otherwise earn. Whoo-hoo! Should be great fun.

We are apparently one of the best online fund-raisers for our station, setting up those monthly donations really add up! That's so cool. We're proud to be able to help keep our little station that can alive.

This is where we get to say, "Please support ethical and unusual media by becoming a member of Co-op Radio," because we love you.
