CHIRP Radio, like all of us, had a wild ride these past few years - but we never stopped bringing you live, local music from an eclectic array of DJs. As a nonprofit and community radio station, we rely on our listeners to help us out just a few times a year. This is especially important right now since our regular fundraising opportunities like the Record Fair and CHIRP Night at the Whistler didn't happen last year. Please give what you can, if you're comfortably able, and I'll be eternally grateful!
