What is a WDCB Membership?
WDCB Members are listeners who make the commitment to support WDCB with an annual financial contribution. Your support of WDCB is critical to keep us providing the many services that our listeners have come to rely on.
Do you have a minimum amount for a contribution?
No. We gratefully welcome ALL contributions. We do have a Basic Membership level of $60 ($30 for seniors and students) to receive our monthly newsletter by USPS mail and other Basic Membership benefits.
What are the different levels of membership?
For a minimum donation of $60 you will receive all of the Basic Membership benefits. (Basic Membership benefits start at $30 for seniors and students.) For your convenience, we offer a number of levels at which you can contribute. Many levels correspond to various thank you gifts. Click here to see WDCBs membership levels, and associated thank you gifts. Feel free to contribute whatever amount you choose regardless if there is a level listed at that amount. We are flexible!
How does WDCB use my membership contribution?
WDCB is a non-profit, non-commercial public radio station. Our $1.2 million annual operating budget comes from a combination of membership contributions by listeners, grants, underwriting and corporate sponsorship, and special events. The largest single cash component of our income is from membership contributions by listeners like you who appreciate what we do enough to support us with a tax-deductible contribution. Visit the WDCB Financials page.
Is my contribution tax-deductible?
Yes. Every contribution made to WDCB is tax-deductible. Many members ask to not receive a thank you gift, and request that 100% of their donation be used to support WDCB. If you opt to not receive a thank you gift with your donation, then the full amount of your contribution is tax-deductible. If you choose to receive a thank you gift the amount of your donation, less the fair market value (FMV) of the thank you gift, is the amount that is tax-deductible.* When you contribute, you will receive a thank you letter, acknowledging the details of your contribution including any thank you gift(s) received, and the FMV of the gift(s).
* Always consult your professional tax preparer for tax advice.
What if I don't want to pledge online?
If you'd rather no make your donation online, you can still make your donation over the phone by calling (630) 942-4200, or you can click here to print out a donation form that you can send back to us through the mail.
What is a employee matching gift program?
If your employer has a Matching Gift Program, you may be able to DOUBLE or sometimes even TRIPLE your the impact of your donation to WDCB. Check with your employer to see if they have such a program, then ask your Human Resources Department for a matching gift form. Many employers now post the Matching Gift Program online. If that is the case, you need to know that our program is administered by the College of DuPage Foundation. After you find the College of DuPage Foundation listed, please indicate that the matching request matches a WDCB contribution.
