I’ve been involved in community radio, first in Montreal at CKUT, and now in Ottawa at CKCU, for almost 30 years and I truly love the diversity of programming that you only find on community radio stations like CKCU. It’s only at community radio stations that people like me and the hosts of all the other shows have the freedom to curate and host our shows without regard to commercial concerns. CKCU has shows that reflect very rare diversity in genres, artists, songs, and communities – and we’re only able to do that with your support. All of us who create programs at CKCU are dedicated volunteers. I know that I work hard to create interesting programs each week on Stranger Songs and each month on Saturday Morning and I think my programming is unique. But that’s one of the great things about community radio – all of the programs are unique. So, please click on the red donate button to show your support for Saturday Morning and CKCU, and help us stay on the air for another year.
