During this critical time, tune in and support WTJU’s Jazz Marathon
By WTJU
Please join us for WTJU’s 2025 Jazz Marathon, filling the airwaves with a full week of jazz and blues specials from September 29th to October 5th. We’re bringing joy and passion during these stormy times. This music is a living, breathing thing, and we’re celebrating our local music scene every night at 8 p.m. with SEVEN live jazz and blues performances.
Whatever tomorrow brings, you know that with WTJU as a companion, you won’t be alone. Jazz has helped us weather stormy times before. It gives us so much.
But this music needs YOU today. Right now, WTJU faces the greatest threat in our history. With the recent cancellation of federal funding, WTJU now faces a $152,000 budget gap – this coming year and every year after.
As WTJU faces an urgent funding situation, please strengthen your own commitment to jazz, blues, and our music-loving community. Please make your most generous contribution today.
Better yet, switch to monthly giving as a WTJU sustainer to ensure stability and predictability in funding. Help protect free access to the music you and thousands of others count on.
Year after year, jazz lovers like you have made WTJU possible through your contributions. As we work to shore up our finances, we ask that you dig a little deeper for the music that’s been your faithful companion. If you value having WTJU as a part of your life, please give generously so that all can continue to benefit from the beauty of jazz and blues.
Your support today will help WTJU protect and share this essential music. While it won’t be easy, we can overcome this crisis together.
