Check out KBOO by volunteering in during the Winter Membership Drive

Hi.  I'm Ani, KBOO's Volunteer Coordinator, and I'd love to talk with you about volunteering.
 
Between February 2nd and the 18th, we are raising $100,000 for KBOO during out Winter Membership Drive! This is hugely important because KBOO's ability to remain a vibrant independent source for news, music, community information, and art absolutely relies on listener support.  Over 80% of KBOO's funding comes from our listeners, and most of that comes to KBOO through the on-air membership drives.  We have over six-hundred shifts to fill during the drive, so we really need everyone's support to make the drive a success.  There are a number of roles for volunteers, and I’d love to talk with you further about how you’d like to participate!

Hi all -

I have not been modeling good blogging skills, I know. So with the new year, I've resolved to write more frequently... and have those entries be shorter. We'll see how this goes.

New Office Hours!

Yes, I have new office hours. I am now here from 11am to 2:30 pm on weekdays KBOO time. So if you'd like to drop in, I should be a little bit easier to find. And if you'd like to make an appointment or share your thoughts, you can do that at web@kboo.org.

New Ads!

Yes, we finally have advertisements. It's pretty exciting.
