WCQS Pledge Drive: Progress Update

Percival, a dapper and oh-so-cool tuxedo cat, made himself quite at home in the studios this morning during the AHS Challenge. Percival is available for adoption at AHS.

Thanks to everyone who has made a pledge to WCQS this spring and to everyone who supported the Challenge match to benefit Asheville Humane Society this morning. We are making great progress towards our goal, and we are happy to report that listeners rallied for the cats and dogs and the Asheville Humane Society Challenge! AHS will receive $10,000 in matching funds, from two anonymous sponsors, to benefit spay and neuter programs. 

Our goal this spring is $200,000. At Noon today we have $61,000 to go to reach our goal by this Thursday. Your pledge today will ensure that WCQS will continue to be a vital resource for Western North Carolina tomorrow. 

Thank you for choosing to listen to WCQS and for choosing to support it.
