WYXR lost critical federal funds. Now we need your help.
Looking to increase your current monthly contribution? Head here!
Congress has cut all funding for public broadcasting, eliminating $1.1 billion nationwide. Funds that were already approved and awarded have now been taken back, forcing WYXR to absorb a sudden 10% loss of our annual budget. This funding supported the unique music, conversations, and cultural programs you can’t find anywhere else - including Stereo Sessions, Raised By Sound Fest, and over 100 volunteer DJs who bring Memphis voices to life every day.
This isn’t just a budget cut; it threatens everything we’ve built together. If WYXR has ever mattered to you - bringing joy, discovery, or connection to our city - now is the time to step up. We’ve taken a big hit, but with your support, we won’t slow down. Not now, not ever.
- With a $50 or more donation, you’ll get a WYXR sticker.
- With a $100 or more donation, you’ll get a WYXR t-shirt or tote bag (you pick) and a sticker.
- With a $150 or more donation, you’ll get a WYXR t-shirt, sticker and tote bag.
