The WGTE FM 91 Corporate Challenge Program enables you to get your business name and information in front of over 75,000 WGTE listeners and helps WGTE secure new members during our semi-annual, on-air pledge drives. As a corporate challenge partner, we will promote your business and your generosity as we ask listeners to become new station members (40% of our operating budget comes from member contributions). As we talk about your business, listeners are encouraged to become station members by contributing an amount that matches, dollar for dollar, your challenge grant. For example, your $1,000 challenge could be used to help us secure 10 new $100.00 members, thereby allowing us to grow our membership revenue by a total of $2,000. There is always an imperative in our voice with a corporate challenge, because the unmatched money is returned to you if the listeners do not take full advantage of the challenge.

In addition to the benefit of on-air promotion during the challenge period, typically 30 - 60 minutes of air time, your business will also receive:

• A minimum of six corporate recognitions during the time you are on air.
• The opportunity for representatives from your business to join the FM 91 talent on the air live to offer the challenge during the program.
• An additional six acknowledgements as a supporter of FM 91 after the fund drive.
• Corporate membership eligibility at challenges of $1,000 and above.

WGTE listeners are intelligent, well-educated, and affluent - just the kind of people who are interested in a business like yours. Our listeners appreciate and value businesses that support public broadcasters. Your business and WGTE Public Broadcasting can make a great partnership that benefits us both.
