What
is Sharathon?
Sharathon is the biannual fundraiser that gets our
yearly budget off the ground. As a listener-supported ministry,
we depend on your generous donations to continue broadcasting.
Twice a year we set aside 2 days to ask you to partner with
us in reaching people for Jesus and changing lives through worship.
How
is my contribution used?
Your contribution literally keeps Praise FM on the
air day and night and goes toward electricity, equipment, maintenance,
phone lines, bandwidth, towers, transmitters, translators, antennas,
music licensing, legal fees, salaries and more.
Is
my contribution tax deductable?
Yes, Praise FM is a 501c3 non-profit organization.
Do
you really need my contribution?
Yes. Because we don't air commercials or charge for
promotion, we depend solely on your contributions. We are 100%
listener supported.
How
much do you need?
Our goal for this Sharathon is $250,000, but this merely
lays a financial foundation for the coming year. With the addition
of 95.3 in the Twin Cities, it costs just under 1 million dollars
per year to operate Praise FM.
We
would ask that you pray about giving $30 a month, that's just
a dollar a day, and think of it this way, your
partnership at a dollar a day enables Praise FM to potentially
reach over 2 million people throughout our listening areas!
Just 700 friends saying “yes” to a dollar a day puts us at our
goal!
How
can I give?
You can safely and securely give a one-time or monthly
credit/debit card gift
here online, or you can call 1-800-658-2229.
What's
a faith promise?
A faith promise is pledging to give a gift to Praise
FM and having faith that the Lord will provide for you to fulfill
your pledge over the course of the next year.
What's
a day sponsor?
Day sponsors make part or all of a broadcast day possible.
When you become a day sponsor, you're able to pick a date and
time for your sponsorship spot to air and you get to contribute
to the script for that spot. You get to share special thoughts
and commemorate your special event with our entire listening
family! Plus, you're helping to change lives through worship
with your gift!
There
are 3 day sponsor levels:

Does
my faith promise automatically renew after one year?
This is just one way that using your credit/debit card
to fulfill your faith promise can simplify your giving. If you
choose to make your gifts with your credit/debit card, your
faith promise will be automatically renewed until you ask us
to stop the transactions. Faith promises fulfilled any other
way are not automatically renewed at the end of the pledged
year.
