The Future of 88.5 KRFY Community Meeting

Once that goal has been reached through underwriting, then the station can hold a pledge drive; write grants; and engage in assorted fund-raising activities. The discussion will focus on underwriting and how the community can participate in the station’s underwriting efforts..

A note on KRFY funding

How has defunding and closure of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting affected KRFY? Our station is funded solely by listeners, supporters and underwriters and has never received funding from the CPB. But some syndicated shows KRFY airs will be affected. The National Federation of Community Broadcasters has prepared a statement on impacts of the CPB closure. Click to read it.
