Why join the Community Sponsor Circle?

Your support helps North Carolina Public Radio raise funds to continue our mission of providing high-quality news, cultural and entertainment content, in the Greater Triangle and Eastern North Carolina. All while creating a more informed and engaged community

It will also allow your organization to be recognized as a supporter of WUNC, the region’s NPR News Source, as an investor in the public radio service that so many people rely on for independent, in-depth and fact-based journalism, civil conversations and a unique approach to storytelling.
And that support translates to increased good will and reputation among listeners:

• 73% of NPR Listeners hold a more positive opinion of sponsors that support Public Radio.*
• 95% of NPR listeners have taken action in response to something heard on public radio*

You can play a powerful role in helping WUNC maintain the high standards it takes to serve as a trusted source of objective and transformational programming that reflects our region, and expands our collective understanding of the global community.
