As part of my "Fifty for Fifty" campaign to celebrate The Mighty's 50th Anniversary, and to thank all of the volunteers, staff, curators / hosts and sponsors of the greatest radio station on the planet, it is my honour to INVEST $50 toward another 50 years of reaching out to communities and people to enrich lives and keep people DANCING !! Please donate whatever you can and join the CKCU Family !
