Why should you support WMSE Radio?

WMSE is a unique, award-winning music radio station licensed by the Milwaukee School of Engineering and operating as a department of MSOE, but financially independent of the university. WMSE Radio, 91.7 FM has been broadcasting for over 25 years.

WMSE is made possible financially with the support of volunteers, local businesses, and of course, our contributing listeners.

What is membership at WMSE?

Contributions from active members make up over two thirds of WMSE's annual operating budget. That means that WMSE really is listener supported radio! Every dollar that the station receives from listeners who enjoy WMSE's programming goes towards helping WMSE sustain and grow.

At WMSE, membership isn't a card you keep in your wallet or a number that you have to remember. Membership is simply the generous act of financially supporting WMSE annually. It's your financial commitment in any amount that allows WMSE to broadcast original programming for you each day. By being a supporting member, you are actively making a difference by making everything you hear on WMSE possible.

Is my membership contribution tax deductible?

Yes. MSOE is a 501(c) 3 organization and your financial support is considered a charitable gift. The total amount of your donation minus the Fair Market Value of any thank you gift(s) you may have selected and is deductible for your tax purposes.

What is a thank you gift?

As an incentive to receive membership support from listeners, WMSE offers a line of merchandise and in-studio live CDs. Members are free to choose whether they would like to receive a gift or not. Choosing to not accept a gift means that more of your contribution will go towards benefiting the programming you hear each day.

When is my membership up for renewal?

WMSE uses a giving model that is based on an annual cycle. An example of this model is: If your first membership gift was on June 17, 2005, your active membership would expire on June, 17 2006. WMSE mails renewal statements beginning three months before your expiration date as a courtesy to all of our active members.

Can I make a contribution by making installment payments?

You certainly can. When you become a member or renew your support at WMSE, you have a choice of two payment options: Lump Sum Payment or Monthly Installments (charged directly to your credit card on a scheduled day each month).

What happened to the Radio Roast?

WMSE is thrilled to re-launch our listeners' coffee of choice in partnership with our long-time friends at Anodyne Coffee this Spring 2008! Anodyne has donated literally more than one ton of the beans, which has raised over $10,000 for the station since 2001. Stay tuned for details!

Employer Matching Gifts

Because WMSE Radio is an educational non-profit organization, many employers will recognize your financial contribution by matching and sometimes doubling, or even tripling your donation. Simply check with your human resources department or manager today to receive a copy of your employer's matching gift form. It's as easy as completing the form and sending it back to WMSE for authorization.

Win a Piece of WMSE

Every year, WMSE gives supporters the chance to "win a piece" of WMSE in an online auction. Winning bidders are acknowledged as sponsors of various items of varying levels of importance found around the station.
