Successful Pledge Drives Mean ‘Everyone Working Together’

Every membership drive is a huge community effort as "Talk of the Nation" host Neal Conan pointed out on Friday (4/20), the second day of KSKA's Spring Membership drive. Monday marks the half way point during this 9-day Spring Drive and our goal of 1500 members is in sight with just under 1000 members to go. Neal Conan might not be here anymore, but volunteers continue to pour through the front door every morning beginning at 6:00 am to help with the drive. You hear their voices on-air and on the phone when they take your pledge. Whether you've helped out on-air, on the phone, or by making a pledge, Thank You.
