In 2018 and every year, your support helps bring Easter Mass to listeners in Western Alaska who do not have a priest to celebrate the holiday.

Even amid the challenges of operating a radio station in bush Alaska, such as an instance of vandalism at KNOM Studios earlier this year, our mission remains continually blessed — and continues, thanks to you.
