WFDD's Fall Fund Drive is happening right now. Your involvement is vital now more than ever. There’s a critical issue facing public radio: the federal government has clawed back crucial funding. For our station, this means we’re short $300,000. We've been diligent. We’ve slashed our budget, left open positions unfilled, and carefully managed our resources so your experience isn’t affected. But it's not enough.

Why Underwriting with WFDD?

88.5 WFDD covers 32 counties in North Carolina and Virginia and broadcasts to 100,000+ listeners per week.

On Monday, July 21, Tom Dollenmayer sat down with Morning Edition host Robin Lambert to discuss how the recent rescission decision is impacting WFDD.

WFDD is your public radio station. We exist because of listener support. Approximately 90 % of our budget comes from the community, and there’s power in that. Why? Because we’re only beholden to you, not to corporate interests, and that means that listener support ensures our journalistic integrity. It means you can absolutely trust that our reporting is true, honest, factual, well-researched, and fact-checked.
