Campus/Community radio in Lethbridge

Fundrive!

Posted on 30 October, 2009

FUNdrive is your way of giving back to CKXU! We are Southern Alberta’s only campus/community radio station and we are run entirely by volunteers and few paid staff. CKXU receives a large portion of it’s funding through a student levy from students at the U of L. It’s a small amount and is roughly enough to cover day to day operations but not much else. CKXU needs funding for items like cd players, turntables, computers, production facilities and the list goes on. We can use the funding to help expand the station into the future and improve the station as a whole. So now’s your chance to donate! FUNdrive runs from Oct. 30- Nov. 6th. Phone in to donate or visit our website or drop in to the station. We’re located on the first floor of the Students Union Building at the U of L.

Thanks for pledging to our FUNdrive this year! Keep on listening!

Payment: Pledges are either phoned in or are made in person, and can be paid by cash, cheque or with a credit card via PayPal.

FUNdrive Total!: $10,702!

If you have pledged but have not paid or picked up swag then come down to the CKXU offices during daytime office hours. We’re located on the first floor of the Students’ Union Building at the University of Lethbridge (just east of the Physical Education building).

But we’re not going to take your $$$ without giving something back right? We have all kinds of events during the week of fundrive, such as:

Oct 30 – Age of Aquarius – 60’s themed Party at The Slice

Nov 1 – Cupcakecamp – Bake Bring Buy and Eat @ Galileo’s

Nov 3 – To the Tarsands – Movie Night in conjunction with LPIRG

Nov 5 – Synesthesia – Music and Art come together – Silent Auction at GCBC Lounge

Nov 6 – Super CKXU Night Live – Wrap-up party!

and check out this awesome swag you can get with your donations:
Shirts! Hoodies! Record Bags! Mugs! Earplugs and Buttons! and cds, records, stickers, and more!
