Friend, we’re so close to reaching our goal of 1000 gifts this weekend to unlock $25,000 from the Member Challenge Fund. But we’re not there yet … If you’re able to, please make a gift now to secure these additional funds for your source for coverage, connection, and context. MPR is for all of us and just like you rely on us—we rely on listeners to keep this public service strong. Join in and be the one who gets us to 1000 gifts and unlocks the $25,000 from the Member Challenge Fund. Any amount is meaningful and has an impact. Thank you! – Lindsay Kimball

Hi Friend, It’s Sunday which means it’s day two of MPR’s Weekend Member Challenge. You can still be a part of securing $25,000 from the Member Challenge Fund for the vital news and calming music you rely on — only when 1000 listeners donate by midnight tonight. Minnesota Public Radio is made for you, by you. It’s only because members participate by giving regularly that we’re able to weather this storm. Today we have a chance to work together to secure these funds for journalism in service of the public. Join in now with a gift — any amount is meaningful! Each weekend, I bring you the headlines, the stories, and the game shows while my colleagues broadcast masterfully produced programs like United States of Americana and Symphony Cast. We are here for you with context, connection, clarity — be here for MPR. This is a critical time for MPR — YOUR public radio station. You and 999 other listeners have the power to make this weekend matter. Choose an amount that feels right for you and know you’re investing in your community and stepping up for those who cannot right now. Thank you,
