Membership & Donation FAQs

Q: Don’t I already support you with my OPB (Oregon Public Broadcasting) membership?

A: Unlike shows like Fresh Air (supported by WHYY) and This American Life (supported by WBEZ) Live Wire is not produced by OPB, we are an independent radio show. Our business model is entirely different. We rely on a diverse funding stream, including individuals.

Q: Don’t I already support you by buying tickets to the live shows?

A: First of all, thanks for coming to our live shows! We can’t wait to get back to the beautiful Alberta Rose. But to answer your question, ticket sales fund less than 10% of our budget, the rest we hustle for!

Q: I already give, but I am ready to give MORE!

A: Oh my gosh, you just made our day! Reach out to members@livewireradio.org to make that happen or click on the yellow button above and make a one-time gift.

Q: I just want to give a one-time donation, not recurring… is that possible?

A: You bet! You can click the DONATE button and choose the one-time gift option.

Q: I need to change my credit card or freeze/cancel my membership, what’s the best way?

A: No problem. Reach out to memberships@livewireradio.org and we will take great care of you.

Q: Can we join as a couple or household?

A: Your membership benefits can extend to your partner, but we’ll send membership emails to just one address. Let us know how to acknowledge your donation in the comment box when making a donation, or email us at members@livewireradio.org
