Thank you!


We want to say thank you SO much for your support this past week during our Spring Pledge drive. Although we did not meet our goal, we want you to know that we appreciate you so much and look forward to doing what we can to remain here in the valley as your 88.1 WAY-FM.

Thank you for the prayers, donations, and love. We also want to thank all of the volunteers that gave of their time, talents, and made pledge drive extremely fun for all of our staff.

In case you are asking, 'ok... where did you end up?':
On Friday, May 15th we went off the air at 8pm without meeting our goal. On Saturday, we decided to come back on the air from 8a-2p to ask for any last gifts anyone might have, knowing full well that sometimes during a busy week you may forget or not be listening much to know what's going on.

We had a great day Saturday and enjoyed hearing stories from many listeners. Including a homeless person that's in drug rehab at the downtown rescue mission and an inmate giving a portion of his pay because the workers are allowed to listen to the station.

88.1 WAY-FM stands now at 89.92% of the overall goal.

Thankfully we hit 100% of our monthly goal, but we still need help where we lack in the one time gift goal.

We're roughly $14,000 away from being 100% fully funded in both those categories. That $14,000 would put the station at 100% for pledge drive.

Again, thank you for your gifts because without them and without your prayers of love and support we wouldn't even be this far along. God bless you and your families!
