The membership team at KBCS welcomes volunteers to assist with the important work of servicing our members.  Whether it’s mailing out thank you gifts, stuffing envelopes, or providing customer service, it’s an essential task is vital to the station and its members.

Membership Drives

KBCS is listener-supported, public radio. The vast majority of our operating budget comes directly from listeners. To raise that support, we hold on-air membership drives each year, as well as year-round membership relations. We are always in need of volunteers to help answer phones and take pledges during pledge drives.
