WDET’s on-air fundraising starts Thursday, September 11.

After a tough summer for public media, we’re working hard to close the gap in our budget and keep your trusted news, music, and conversation strong.

Listener support has already helped us make progress, and now this fundraiser will play a critical role in reaching our fiscal year-end goal.

Now more than ever, members matter. You can make a difference with a one-time gift or by becoming a monthly sustaining member.

Join us on air and streaming as we come together to keep WDET strong.

Perks of being a WDET member

WDET members enjoy benefits throughout the year, including invitations to member-only events, early ticket access, special discounts, and opportunities to take part in unique experiences.

As a way of saying “thank you,” members can choose from exclusive WDET swag. Each time you make a qualifying gift, you’ll have the option to select a thank-you gift. 

Be sure to check out the 101.9 Collection, which features the Everyday Cuff Beanie, Team Scarf, Burgundy Cap, and Zip Tote.

During this fall fundraiser, new members who make their very first gift of $10.19 per month or more will receive the WDET Everyday Beanie from our 101.9 Collection.
