First I want to welcome our newest underwriter, Benny Bowman of Irongate Capital Advisors. Support from our Underwriters is crucial to keeping us on the air, so please support them! This week on WWER we start a series of monthy Question and Answer sessions on Town Matters with Mayor Robin Schick with questions from our […]
The other day, I came to the realization that I don’t give enough credit to our ongoing sponsors. We call them “Underwriters”, and you hear them mentioned on air all the time. What you may not realize is how important these local businesses are to keeping WWER on the air. Underwriting accounts for about 2/3 […]

I’m glad to say that we’ve had some new underwriters join the station recently, and I thought it was time to recognize them here. Underwriting is what you might think of as sponsorship. As a non-commercial radio station, we cannot broadcast advertising in the traditional sense. Instead, we accept donations (we are a non-profit) and […]
