Because of your generosity, we met the goal for the week and raised $182,000, which will help us continue to bring you the quality programming you love and rely on. If you pledged on Friday, April 15, you’ll be excited to know that we reached the goal of 400 pledges that day so Cortese Tree Specialists will donate 300 dogwood trees to Dogwood Arts Bazillion Blooms to be planted around Knoxville. However you donated, whenever you donated, we are grateful for and humbled by your support. Thank you for being loyal partners of this radio station.
