Faculty and staff help wanted for KMUW pledge drive

KMUW's fall 2010 on-air pledge drive begins Thursday, Oct. 21. The goal for the drive is $220,000, which would enable Wichita Public Radio's programming for the next few months. KMUW is counting on you for the important job of completing the membership pitch with listeners as you answer pledge phones. KMUW will offer corporate challenges and matching funds that have been contributed by current KMUW members.

You'll input each caller's pledge data on a personal computer. Because KMUW wants everything to run as smoothly as possible for you and its supporters, you are requested to attend at least one (an hour or less) training session at KMUW.

Phone training session A -- 7 a.m. Monday, Oct. 18
Phone training session B -- noon Monday, Oct. 18
Phone training session C -- noon Tuesday, Oct. 19
Phone training session D -- 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 19

Call 978-7171 or 978-6600 to schedule your training session, your shifts and with any questions. KMUW appreciates your help and definitely couldn't do it without you.
