CKUW FUNDRIVE 2024  

Shades of Classics had a successful FunDrive, raising $1285  during FunDrive 2024.  A heartfelt thank you to all of the donors for their generous support of Shades of Classics and CKUW!

And even though our FunDrive programs have past you can still show your commitment to Shades of Classics and your listener supported community access radio station by making a pledge online.  You can do this anytime securely on the CKUW website.

Shades of Classics is being produced in my home studio before being aired on CKUW.  There are new and original programs airing each and every week.  Stay tuned for any updates on this situation.
