Our fundraising is done for KPFK here in the summer, we raised close to $3,000 which is pretty amazing given that I’ve only been doing this show since the end of May and the first two fundraising shows were during a Laker’s playoff game and Father’s Day. Fundraising in general is a challenge, but given the above circumstances these were definitely my most challenging fundraising shifts in my radio career. After three weeks of intense fundraising, I can’t explain to you how much I am really looking forward to returning to regular programming this week.
