Day Sponsors

Contribute $365 or more a year to become a Day Sponsor and celebrate a personal milestone such as a birthday, anniversary, wedding, retirement, or memorial, or encourage support for a community organization.

Day sponsorships may be reserved at any time, but a minimum of two weeks’ notice to schedule and voice your announcement is appreciated. Five on-air announcements will then be scheduled on the date of your choice.

WCBU does not accept day sponsorships from political action committees (PACs). Political messages from candidates for elected office or from individuals/groups supporting candidates or PACs are prohibited. Day Sponsors sharing educational voting information are allowed.
