That’s right!

Another membership drive is approaching…

What does this mean?

It means CIUT 89.5 FM, your favourite community radio station (which is also a non-profit registered charitable organization) would appreciate any support you can offer to help us continue another year of broadcasting. The money raised goes towards programming and facility upgrades.

All of the programmers on the air are VOLUNTEERS, we don’t get paid for the time we put into preparing the shows, updating online content, or our time at the station doing programming. In fact, most of us pay to be members ourselves!

So, if you would like to support free, independent, community radio, please click the link below:

DONT FORGET TO MENTION BLISSFUL THUNDER AS YOUR FAVOURITE SHOW!!
