Our Crowdfunding Groups
In our 50 years on the FM dial, WNYU has been the home of some of the earliest interviews, performances, and airplay of bands like Nirvana, R.E.M, The Cure, and Public Enemy, and has broadcast 24/7 for the majority of that time, all while operating entirely under the supervision of students. While college radio as a medium has been constantly threatened by budget shortfalls and corporate interests, WNYU has remained, independent and alternative, winning awards and recognition from the music industry and independent artists alike. This year marks the 50th Anniversary of FM broadcasting at WNYU, an occasion we're hoping to celebrate with our WNYU family, the NYU community, and the larger New York community. Our hope is to host a local concert to celebrate this momentous occasion! This concert would be hosted by WNYU and would include a look back on our station history, performances by local bands, and an opportunity for people to come together to celebrate a love of music. Your donation will help us greatly, and its applications will be instantly noticeable, as we work to remain in business as an institution of local music and media, while planning our 50th Anniversary event.
