Summer Pledge Progress

Tentative total - $286,375 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!
