WMPG's Fall Begathon 2026

Keep community radio alive and thriving. Support WMPG's Fall Begathon!

Free speech has deep roots, and here at WMPG, those roots run deep. For more than 53 years, WMPG has been a place where we support local artists, make space for different perspectives, and craft shows around real human interaction. That kind of radio doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because listeners like you keep it going. So this Begathon, help keep WMPG’s roots deep. Help keep the radio human.

WMPG has been turning up the volume on community, creativity, and connection—bringing you music you won’t hear anywhere else, voices you won’t find anywhere else, and stories that make you stop and listen. And here’s the thing: WMPG only exists because you’re listening. You are the reason independent, community-powered radio continues to fill the airwaves in Portland, throughout Southern Maine, and around the world.

Now it’s time to keep the signal strong. During Fall Begathon, October 22–28, we’re going for $55,000 to help power the people, programs, music, and equipment that make WMPG uniquely WMPG.

Seven days. $55,000. One incredible community.

Tune in. Join in. Help us keep community radio loud, local, and independent for the next 53 years.

Every gift, every dollar, and every listener matters!
