46 years of handmade, one-of-a-kind, diverse, quirky, weird, wonderful, community radio. WORT.
We’re celebrating 46 years of partnering with the best listeners in radio. WORT volunteers bring you 160 hours of music, news, and talk every week that you won’t find anywhere else and your generosity makes it possible. Thank you!
Your donation means we can break radio’s unwritten rules. We don’t stick to one genre of music. We place no restrictions on what our hosts cover or who they interview. Our award-winning news reporters show up in places where other reporters don’t venture.
Here are a variety of ways to support WORT:
Check. Make your check out to WORT and mail it to WORT, Attn: LSDD, 118 S Bedford Street, Madison, WI, 53703. If you pledge online or by phone, we will send you a remittance envelope to complete your donation.
Credit Card/PayPal. Scroll down to make your donation via MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Discover, or PayPal.
Automatic Monthly Donations. Become a monthly donor and help WORT budget for long term projects, cut processing costs, and reduce the number of days spent on pledge drives. Click here. Want to change your monthly donation? Right here.
Car Donations. Is your car more chitty chitty than bang bang? We’ll take your vehicle and turn it into beautiful music! More information on how to donate your car here.
If you have any questions about donations (including stocks, trusts, estates, qualified charitable distributions, etc.) please contact Susan at susan@wortfm.org, or call 608-321-9579.
