We made our goal!
Many thanks to everyone—musicians, volunteers, organizers, and, most of all, donors—who came together on May 15th to exceed our goal of raising $75,000 to complete the 3 studios in our new building. We are thrilled and delighted, and so grateful to everyone!
Thank you for supporting community broadcasting!
Join the
Fund-A-Need (Fan) Campaign
for the New KZYX HQ
Individuals and groups can donate to specific Fund-a-Need items.
How about creating a KZYX FAN Club with friends, colleagues, and family to fund a need?
The project to construct the new KZYX Ukiah headquarters at 390 W. Clay Street is moving forward as rapidly as funding becomes available. With $1 millions already raised from wide-ranging sources, another $1 million-plus is still needed.
For details on the building project and FAN elements, ask a staff or board member, or email boardpresident@KZYX.org.
