Get ready, friends, Begathon is almost here! From October 23rd–29th, WMPG will celebrate a week of fun, music, and community as we raise $50,000 to keep your favorite community and college radio station thriving.
We live in a time when so much of what we hear is driven by algorithms and automation but WMPG is proudly human. Every show on our airwaves is created by volunteers who share their own voices, stories, and music choices, not for faceless crowds, but for real people who listen and care. That connection builds trust and belonging, both on and off the air. You can hear it in the conversations, the friendships, and the community that grows around this station. When you give to WMPG, you’re helping keep that human connection strong, keeping real voices and local stories on the air.
