Be a Sustaining Member

Becoming a sustaining member of WCQS is the best way to have a significant impact as a listener. 

It's convenient.  Sustaining Members commit to open-ended monthly contributions that don't lapse. Your contribution is deducted automatically from the account of your choice (until you tell us to stop) which means no reminders from us. So, we spend less of your contribution on postage and paper. Plus, all the benefits that come with being a member remain yours to enjoy including access to special events and offers.

It's powerful. By eliminating administrative expenses, more of your contribution goes into the programming. Plus, when enough members become Sustainers, we'll be able to create shorter on-air drives. Imagine how good you will feel about that.

It's enduring. Spreading your support over time is easier on your budget. Plus it gives MPR the security of a steady, reliable stream of program support. You'll feel good knowing that you're continuing to support MPR's vital service to our communities.
