Supporter Spotlight at WCBU

Whether you've been with us since the beginning or you're a recent fan, we want to hear why you financially support WCBU and the NPR Network.

Is it our in-depth local news coverage of Greater Peoria and beyond that you can count on? Or maybe you love starting your mornings with a cup of coffee and Morning Edition?

Whatever it is, let us know! Here's how you can share your story:

Option 1: Record a voice memo

Grab your smartphone (or any device!) and record a quick voice memo. Once you're done, email the file to us at supporterspotlights@wcbu.org.

Option 2: Leave a voicemail

Prefer talking on the phone? No problem! Just call 309-438-4402. Follow the instructions, and you'll be prompted to leave a voicemail.

Here’s what you should include in your message:

1. Introduce yourself using your first and last name. Feel free to mention your city if you would like!

2. Provide a brief testimonial on why you choose to financially support WCBU and the NPR Network.

A few tips to make your message shine:

• Keep it around 30 seconds. WCBU reserves the right to edit your message for brevity and/or clarity.
• Try to record in a quiet spot (no driving or noisy places, please!).

That’s it! By participating, you acknowledge that your voice could be used on air or on social media.
