Dear John,

Our May radio drives ends tonight at midnight, and I hope we can count on your support.

As you may know, local media coverage is decreasing nationwide, and inflation has put a strain on our community members and the support they extend to us. But with your help, we can keep independent public media strong in the Bay Area. Your gift to our May radio drive will help ensure that high-quality news and entertainment remain accessible to everyone in our community.

And when you make a gift of $10/month or more before midnight, you’ll get a KQED clear tote bag as a thank you.

Your support will keep more than 100 storytellers, reporters, editors and producers at work, bringing you news and entertainment 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Please don't wait any longer — make your gift now and help us continue our mission of providing top-notch, independent news coverage to the Bay Area and beyond.

Thank you for all you do as a supporter of KQED. We couldn’t do it without you!
