Dear friends:

On a scale of one to ten, my vocal talent is a one. But my love for Radio Milwaukee is an eleven.

That's why I’ve foolishly accepted the challenge to “Karaoke for a Cause” in support of 88Nine Radio Milwaukee. I have committed to sing in front of hundreds of people at the 3rd Annual Fall Ball on Friday, September 23, 2016.  My live performance will be backed by an all-star lineup of musicians from some of Milwaukee’s favorite bands…but I need your support!

Your gift to my personal “Karaoke for a Cause” fundraising campaign will not only allow me to live out my rock star dreams, but it will ensure 88Nine is able to continue expanding its positive impact in Milwaukee.

For those of you who aren’t Radio Milwaukee listeners yet, Radio Milwaukee (88.9 FM) has been a catalyst in the transformation of our city. As a nonprofit public radio station, Radio Milwaukee’s one-of-a-kind format is designed to unite people and build community through great music and compelling stories: on the air, online and in the community.

But Radio Milwaukee’s impact goes beyond the airwaves, beyond even the website and social media. In addition to great music and stories, 88Nine benefits our community as a whole and is elevating Milwaukee’s image and livability. Radio Milwaukee engages and attracts people to our city and promotes the kind of unique, authentic culture that makes people love living here.

Please support my debut, along with this great organization, by making your donation today.

I hope you'll also purchase a ticket to join me in attending the Fall Ball, as 88Nine has put together a pretty terrific evening of interactive fun and Milwaukee-centric food & beverages.  Visit radiomilwaukee.org/FallBall for tickets and more event information. Thank you for your support. I hope to see you there!
