FUNdrive is the most important time of the year for CKXU. This is the only time of the year we solicit our listeners and the community for donations. These donations help us bring in a large portion of CKXU’s operating income and help us keep the station running for the year.
This year FUNdrive falls from October 21 – 28. This is the most fun and exciting time of the year at the station and all our shows join in to help raise the funds.
Our goal this year is $12 000 but we need your help to get there!
If you’ve already pledged, please stop by the station to pay your pledge and collect your swag. We accept cash and cheques in the office but if you’d prefer to pay by debit or credit, please click on the Donate link on the right side of the page (but don’t forget to pledge before you pay!).
Final Pledge Total:
$10 000
Final FUNdrive Total:
$12 543!!!!
A huge thank you goes out to:
- all of the hardworking volunteers who made FUNdrive possible by answering phones, creating inventive FUNdrive programming, helping planning and organizing… (the list goes on)
- each of the businesses who participate in our Friends Card program for being so awesome by supporting us and also donating extra prizes & incentives
- anyone who attended our Live Drive Events (Roger’s Pass movie presentation, Don’t You Forget About Me, CupCakeCarnival, Board Game Bonanza, Black Tie Affair)
- everyone who pledged their support by donating their hard earned cash in exchange for some CKXU swag
The phone lines are closed for another year, but you can still donate by stopping by the station or clicking the “Donate” button on the right-hand side of the page.
