WFMU’s Hellraiser Fundraiser Has Begun!

Every October, WFMU conducts its Hellraiser Fundraiser. It’s an off-air fundraiser conducted mostly by Internet and mail. Our DJs only mention it briefly once per show, but the Year End fundraiser is important for us since it gets us over the hump of the winter months – that time of year when the funds we raised in our spring marathon are beginning to dwindle. If you can, help us out with a donation and grab one of the two new T-shirts exclusive to this fall campaign.

It’s the Hellraiser – DJ Specials All October Long!

WFMU DJs are putting together exciting radio specials all month long in conjunction with our October Hellraiser. What’s a Hellraiser you ask? Why, it’s a month-long fundraising celebration packed with specials. Tune in and remember why WFMU is a station like no other. Please support us and give us the ability to continue to bring you creative and unique programming!
