| More than 568,000 listeners turn to KQED radio every week for reliable, fact-based news coverage. Another 305,000 visit our website and 87,000 download our podcasts. Member support is key to funding these KQED programs and all our services. Give today and help KQED reach our $50,000 World Press Freedom Day goal. Your generosity — doubled — will help KQED remain independent and free to everyone. | | KQED is committed to journalistic excellence. We recently won the Academy of Radio Arts & Sciences in America’s 2024 World Radio Day Award. We’ve also received many awards including the prestigious Edward R. Murrow Award and Emmy Awards for our work about everything from the science behind barnacles and honeypot ants to why books are being banned in schools. | | Thanks to the incredible work of our journalists, we’ve seen real action taken to benefit our community — like the shutdown of diesel generators polluting East Oakland air in 2022. Also, improved security measures for psychiatry residents working in Sutter Health’s inpatient mental health facilities after multiple assaults were handled improperly, following our reporting in March of this year. When you give to KQED, you support investigative reporting that gets results. | |
