[KFCF Friends] FW: KPFA: Special Volunteer Issue, Mini Fund Drive Starts July 31!

Fri Jul 27 11:13:59 PDT 2007

Greetings KFCF Friends:

Many of you remember the wonderful "Folio", the printed program guide that
KPFA used to publish.  Those days are gone but now the KPFA folks are
producing an email version to let you know more about upcoming programs,
community events and station news.  I just wanted to introduce you to this
21st century newsletter for your information.  If you want to keep receiving
it, simply click on the appropriate link below and follow the instructions.
There is a lot of information here even though the format may seem a little
formidable.  Just click on the links to find the information you need.
Thanks for your support.

Cheers,
Vic Bedoian

 Come experience the Fund Drive from the inside out - Catch a glimpse of
your favorite on-air personalities - Meet other passionate KPFA listeners!

 Much of the work of keeping KPFA on the air is done by volunteers.
Not least of this is the work of the illustrious Phone Room Volunteer.
Phone room volunteers are strong and intrepid, diligent and precise, have
legible hand-writing and are able to leap over a variety of accents and lots
of background noise in a single bound! You are certainly qualified to become
one of the elite Phone Room Volunteers.

 We need you to step up to the challenge during our upcoming Summer
Mini-Fund Drive. If we have a shortage of folks manning the phones from 6:30
am until nearly midnight, we stand to lose the contribution money that keeps
us moving forward. If you want to be extra saintly, we are often in need of
phone volunteers on weekends and early mornings.

 Fund Drive Volunteer Benefits

 Free Food & Beverages!
 Meet KPFA On Air Hosts
 KPFA membership for 3 hours of volunteer work  Discounts on some KPFA
Pledge Gifts  Hang out with Fellow Listeners

 Volunteering is not unappreciated work. You will be rewarded most
handsomely with great coffee or tea, bagels and dinners (thanks to local
food purveyors <http://kpfa.org/fooddonors>  that donate goods to us), the
opportunity to get discounts on those great KPFA premiums that we make here
(like T-shirts and DVDs of local events), and the opportunity to hang out
with other like minded souls.
 Also, 3 hours of volunteering makes you a member of KPFA and gains you
voting rights in the next Local Station Board election <http://lsb.kpfa.org>
. Make sure that when you volunteer to sign up in the phone room so that we
will have a record of your participation and will be registered to vote for
this Fall's board election <http://lsb.kpfa.org> .

 <http://kpfa.org/directions/>
Just stop by the station any time, any day, from July 31st until August 8th
from 6:30 AM (during Democracy Now!
<http://democracynow.org>
) till 11:00PM (for your favorite evening music programs). The station is at
1929 Martin Luther King Jr. Way near the corner of University Avenue in
Berkeley. We encourage you to use BART or AC Transit
<http://kpfa.org/directions/> , as the parking can be tight (but not
impossible) during the daytime.

 Remember that if you are a member of a community group, labor union, or
non-profit your organization will be thanked on the air every day you come
in as a group to answer phones. To make arrangements please
email: eden at kpfa.org <mailto:eden at kpfa.org>  or call 510 848 6767 x 205 and
let us know when you will be in and how many of you there will be.

 Want to see more? Visit Khalil Bendib's website <http://www.bendib.com/> .
Khalil can be heard on KPFA's Voices of the Middle East and North Africa
<http://www.kpfa.org/archives/index.php?show=25>
, Wednesdays at 7:00pm. Listen to past shows
<http://www.kpfa.org/archives/index.php?show=25>
 or subscribe to the podcast <http://www.kpfa.org/podcast/> .

 We are still looking for food to feed the volunteers. If you have a
restaurant, bakery, catering business, cafe, big garden, or the itch to make
a huge batch of cookies, contact Maria at 510 848 6767 x 258 or email at
maria at kpfa.org <mailto:maria at kpfa.org> .

 Can you imagine how tense our phone volunteers, and hard-working hosts such
as Jim Bennett, Brian Edwards-Tiekert, or Luis Medina get during long hours
on-air during the fund drive? If you are a massage therapist, you would be
doing the station an invaluable service to help sooth and relax the folks
who work the hardest during the drive.
We have a relatively quiet space to set up your table or massage chair!

 Please email: eden at kpfa.org <mailto:eden at kpfa.org>  or call 510 848 6767 x
205 if you can help out.
