KUNR Public Radio
Public media stations — including KUNR — are at risk of losing critical federal funding, and we are incredibly grateful for the support of our listeners and community for speaking up on behalf of the station and public media ecosystem, as well as contributing to our financial future.
We are honored to announce one more way our community can protect KUNR’s future: A $50,000 challenge grant thanks to the generosity of the Greg Nelson Trust. That means over the next few weeks, you can double any gift made to KUNR Public Radio or KNCJ Nevada Classical and Jazz until we raise $50,000!
