Support Michigan Radio



Michigan Radio's spring membership drive was a success! More than 6900 listeners came forward to pledge more than $817,000 in our week-long drive. If you were one of those listeners; or you became a member, renewed your membership, or made an additional gift recently – thank you! Your support really does make a difference.

Also, if you made a gift to the member challenge fund; through your generosity, we were able to raise more than $80,000. Thank you for that
