 One-derful Wednesday is coming to WQED-FM! We are shortening WQED-FM's Fall fund drive to one day. Not by one day... we've shortened it to one day. Yes, we really are trying to meet our $90,000 pledge goal in one day instead of 10, 12, or 14 days. We're calling it One-derful Wednesday and it's happening September 8th. We need your help to make it a success. You can click here to give now and have you contribution count towards the goal or make your contribution on Wednesday, September 8th. And please give as generously as you can. Thanks.
