Radiothon 2010
WRIU's annual fundraiser, Radiothon 2010, ran from Sunday, April 11 through Sunday, April 18. We'd like to thank everyone who called in a pledge or donated online. Your support means a lot to everyone here at the station.
You can mail your donations to:
WRIU Radiothon
326 Memorial Union
Kingston, RI 02881
We won't be actively soliciting funds again until Radiothon 2011 next year, but you're welcome to make a donation at any time using our online donation form (or simply by mailing a donation to the address above). Unfortunately we have no ability to offer the premiums to you in exchange for those donations that we do during Radiothon, though if there is something you're especially interested in, we can see if we have any left over.
While WRIU receives funding from the URI Student Senate to cover most basic day-to-day expenses like office supplies and our telephone bill, that funding does not cover the extensive needs of a radio station.
Your support of the station is necessary for us to continue to bring you the programming you expect and enjoy all year. From these funds we pay for essentials like repairs and maintenance on our transmitter, replacement of broken equipment, and royalty fees and equipment for our webcast.
We also put some of it away for a rainy, or perhaps snowy, day, when ice acumulates on our antenna or that inevitable day when our transmitter needs replacement. Without the funds that we collect, and save, from radiothon, we would likely be unable to recover from such a setback.
