If you are in Portland today take a glance up at the Time & Temperature sign, there you will see DON8 and then WMPG. This announces the start of our Spring Begathon. This is when we ask you our friends and supporters to help keep WMPG running for another six months.
We need to raise $55,000 in seven days. Today is our first day and as of 10:00 a.m. we are up to $7,310.29! Can you help us reach our goal by calling in a pledge at 874-3000 or donating on-line via our web page at
WMPG.org or even dropping by the studio at 92 Bedford Street on the Portland campus? The phone number again is (207) 874-3000. Stop by, have a sip of coffee (Thanks Coffee by Design!) and take a quick tour. We love visitors and maybe even sign up to be trained to be a DJ or volunteer to answer the donation phone lines for an hour or two!
WMPG is the radio voice of USM and the people of Southern Maine and needs your help to stay alive and well.
WMPG has more than 200 volunteers, aged 6 to 87, that regularly present their own thoughts, opinions, ideas and music. We broadcast in many languages including English, Spanish, Khmer, Russian and French. If you support this and believe it is important please make a donation now. Whatever you can afford will be greatly appreciated by all!
Thanks from all of us here at WMPG!
