‘Rising Up’: ONE MORE PLEDGE DAY – Rising Up with Sonali

Dear ‘Rising Up With Sonali’ listeners,

A message from Sonali Kolhatkar:

Hi, I’m Sonali Kolhatkar, host and executive producer of ‘Rising Up With Sonali’ – a program funded by KPFK Pacifica Radio in Los Angeles. I’ve been doing this work for more than 16 years, but the last 18 months have proven to be the hardest. Donald Trump and his swamp-filled cronies are accumulating more wealth and destroying our basic protections and rights – all with the support of rightwing lawmakers and his rabid base. This country has never been in more need of clear, focused, analytical and factual information. That’s what my producer and I strive to do everyday.”

Now, it costs quite a bit of money to run a community radio station even when it do it on the cheap. We need more than $250,000 a month to run the station – or about $365 dollar per hour of airtime.

Because we don’t take corporate money we need support from listeners like you during KPFK’s current pledge drive August 1st through 15th. Call us at 818-985-5735. That’s 818-985-KPFK anytime between August 1st and 17th.

Thank you so much!
