Membership Drive Volunteers Needed
It's marathon time again and WBAI needs you. We begin on Wednesday May 2nd and continue through Friday June 1st. Volunteers drive our efforts to raise money here at New York's Pacifica station, and we're at it 24/7. So pick a shift or two and come in to support your free speech radio station. We especially need people during the early morning, from 6am - 10am, so if you can, please volunteer at least one morning. Anyone who volunteers for 15 hours or more is eligible to receive a premium from a select list chosen by Kathy Davis. Thank you in advance for your support of WBAI.

WBAI Capital Campaign
Because our broadcasting studios' lease ends in December of 2012, we are researching new locations and look forward to having a street level presence - one that is more easily accessible to our members and situates WBAI better in the public's eye. A large public performance / meeting space is planned that will enable WBAI to present and broadcast live audience attended events. To enable the move, a capital campaign has begun on both large and small scales. Fundraising events will take place monthly to support the move. On March 1, 2012 WBAI launched a Text to Give Capital Campaign.

Text message phone# 80888
and type in WBAIGIVE

You will receive a text back asking you to confirm with a "yes" and a $10 dollar donation will be charged to your cell phone bill - It's that easy! ... or visit our Facebook page and use the donation widget in the left menu.
