 Building
the Future of Public Broadcasting
Several times throughout the
year, WFYI Public Broadcasting counts
on our viewers and listeners for
financial support. However, financial
support is not the only way someone
can contribute to our station. During
our membership pledge drives, we
use the help of volunteers to answer
the phones, take pledge information,
supervise volunteer training, and
record the pledges. Opportunities
are available!
