CIUT Fundraising

CIUT is in the midst of a fundraising campaign to raise $100,000 over the next couple of weeks and we need your help. We are looking for people to come in and talk about what the radio station means to them. We are looking for people to come in and answer phones. We are looking for listeners to donate. Recently we learned that the provincial government is introducing the Student Choice initiative which could see funding for CIUT serenely diminished.....to the point where we might close down. This is a threat unlike anything we have seen before, but certainly has roots in what happened to CKLN when the Engineering Students pulled student funding to CKLN. It was a only a few short years before they were off the air. This muffling of media fits into a contemporary conservative playbook. We ask that you support the only local radio station left in the city. Go to the Donate page on CIUT's website.

We also have a Sound of Your City" t-shirt to give-away. You can become a member of the station which entitles you to voting rights and a discount card. You can be entered into a draw for a trip to Croatia. And we will have a copy of the out of print "TOHC" book complete with single to giveaway to the highest donor o Sunday night. Donations made on-line are eligible for the book.
