Volunteer for FUNDRIVE 2026: DINO DOOM!
CKXU 88.3 FM is overjoyed to present FUNDRIVE 2026: DINO DOOM from October 16 to 23, 2026! This annual fundraiser provides essential support to the station and emphasizes the community-centric and foundational efforts made by the CKXU Staff and Volunteers to garner donations from our community.
Join our Expedition Crew and sign up to volunteer to help CKXU raise $15,000! Making radio, keeping the broadcast equipment in tip-top shape, and maintaining our Broadcast tower lease and utilities accounts for 70% of our annual operating expenses and it’s thanks to fundraising campaigns like FUNdrive that we’re able to pay these bills, keep the good ol’ CKXU tunes a flowing, and keep offering diverse and engaging volunteer opportunities!
And that means we need YOUR help! Join the CKXU Expedition Crew for another year of FUNdrive festivities, including volunteering to help receive and package pledges!
