Johann Sebastian Bach’s two wives may have borne him twenty children; but their pains were as nothing next to the protracted labor of this year’s Bach 500. We are still pushing – in part because of last week’s snowstorm, which delayed fundraising – toward our ultimate goal of 500 donations.
If 500 listeners to The Classical Network step up and contribute in any amount, we will stop with the solicitations and return to uninterrupted music. We are now to the point that we need just a little over 60 donations to wrap up this campaign. For you, it will mean less talk and more music; for us, it will mean $15,000 in challenge money for the station.
Have you become one of the 500? Your contribution doesn’t have to break the bank. $10 or $20 counts as much as $100 or $200 toward the quota. Of course, we always hope you can be as generous as you can. Do it today at our website, wwfm.org – click on “donate now,” beneath the membership thermometer – or call 1-888-232-1212.
I’d be especially appreciative if we could reach the 500 BEFORE I have to go on the air today. Wouldn’t it be nice to enjoy just music, from 4 to 7 p.m. EDT? I think so. You can help make it happen. Thank you for your support of WWFM – The Classical Network and wwfm.org.
