Look at that happy face! This summer I celebrated my 5th anniversary as a DJ (WHAT?!?), and it's time for CHIRP Radio’s fundraiser, so I’m here to ask for your support! You know that the Chicago Independent Radio Project (CHIRP) is a volunteer-driven, listener-funded, commercial-free station, and we rely on friends and listeners to keep us on the air. Please consider donating $15, $20 (or more) to community radio. Did I mention we're commercial free?

As I channel the great soul legends Sam and Dave ... I thank you (thank you) thank you (thank you) for your support.

And bonus: If you donate NOW, I’ll play the cool cover song of your choice (or I’ll pick one for you) on an upcoming show and give you a big shout-out on the air.

Thank you!

Kristi/K-Tel

ABOUT 2024 Fall Fundraising Campaign

CHIRP is your live, local, independent radio station

Here at CHIRP, we're all about human-driven radio: no algorithms, robots, or AI -- just local DJs who are passionate about the music they play and always excited to share their latest discoveries. We're happy to take requests, give you chances to win concert tickets, and hear your feedback. CHIRP is a station that was made for music lovers like you!

Your generous support makes everything we do possible. We are a truly independent, listener-supported station, 100% commercial-free.

If you believe in this work and have the capacity, please make a donation to CHIRP today.
