Update: Failed sale of Goddard campus & impact on station

No doubt some of our listeners and especially Goddard alumni have heard the latest news about yet another failed sale of the Goddard campus. This continues to put the physical future of the station in a state of limbo, however, we remain fully committed to working with any future owner of campus, whomever that will be. 

In many ways, WGDR and WGDH are part of the legacy of the Goddard vision of social justice, deeper thought, and community connection. We are proud to be part of this legacy, and, through community ownership, we are working hard to come through this sale of campus, however we need to.

During this fall fundrive and for all our future fundraising efforts until campus ownership changes, any extra funds we can raise above our goals will go directly into the CVCR Future Fund. This fund will help us prepare for increased costs from new ownership of campus that will be passed on to leasing entities like us. Costs like independent internet service and increased other utility costs. 

If you have the means to give a bit more, in anticipation of these increased costs, during this fundrive, please do. If you are a Goddard alumni, looking for a place to invest in a way to keep the Goddard legacy alive, we hope you’ll consider WGDR/WGDH as one of those places. 

You can donate today at WGDR.org or make a check out to CVCR and mail to CVCR, 123 Pitkin Road, Plainfield, VT, 05667.

Thank you, listeners!
