Some of the most important people behind Capital Public Radio's success are the hundreds of volunteers who contribute their time, energy and expertise throughout the year. Capital Public Radio volunteers contribute over 4,000 hours each year, with nearly half of that during on-air fund drives.

You can become a community-minded supporter of public radio and get to know other passionate supporters of news and information, jazz and classical music.

IMPORTANT: Since we frequently record and photograph our events, you must agree to assign without compensation all rights, and release Capital Public Radio from liability for the recording, reproduction, exhibition, broadcast, internet streaming and distribution of your visual image and/or voice for non-profit use.

Volunteer Options

On-Air Fund Drive

Three times a year (Winter, Spring and Fall) we heavily recruit volunteers to staff our phone bank. As a phone volunteer you answer telephones from listeners calling to contribute their support.

You can also sign up your group to help during on-air fund drives. Answering phones is a wonderful team-building activity for your group. And to show our appreciation, we will announce your group's participation over the air during your volunteer shift.

When we're recruiting volunteers for these times, you'll find a telephone image in the right-hand column linked to the registration form.
