Summer Pledge Progress
Tentative total - $293,506 of $375,000
 
Thank you to everyone who donated or volunteered! We appreciate each and every one of you. Your generosity and commitment makes MTPR possible. We'll have the final total soon.

Last year, Congress eliminated two years of federal funding for public media. Your monthly donation provides an ongoing, reliable source of funding that we can count on. Thank you!


Caroline Keys & Bon I. Whealdon

Caroline Keys

Among the jobs Caroline Keys has held since moving to Montana: driving a tour boat on Flathead Lake.  Recently, she arranged a gig for her band on the boat she used to captain. She's reminded of a Salish story about ingenuity and re-arranged roles, collected by Bon I. Whealdon in I Will Be Meat For My Salish, about "Man-of-Three-Mothers."

(Broadcast: Reflections West, 8/12/14 & 8/13/14)
