http://kcpw.org/upcoming-features en KCPW and its listeners have until May 28 to raise the down payment on buying the station from Community Wireless of Park City. It's similar to buying a house. In this instance, the negotiated purchase price is $2.4 million. KCPW needs to make a 25% down payment, which is approximately $600,000. We're more than half the way there, but still need another $219,000 for the down payment. Come June 1, KCPW will change hands. If we’re successful in this first leg of what will be a three-year capital campaign, the programs you enjoy will remain on 88.3 and 105.3 FM. If not, the KCPW you know will cease to exist. This capital campaign financial need is not to be confused with our twice-yearly membership drives that provide the operating funds necessary to pay programming-related fees, staff and utilities. This is an appeal to you, our listeners, to make a contribution to help buy KCPW – for you to become vested in an independent, public news service that serves people who live and work in this community.

Like never before, your support makes a difference.
