Help keep the power on at New England Public Radio! Today we’re “generating” support for a back-up generator to help us stay on the air when you need us most!

With winter upon us, we need your help to be sure we’re able to keep broadcasting even in the worst winter storm. The severity of last year’s October snowstorm, tropical storm Irene and super storm Sandy have made the purchase of a back-up generator for our transmitter critical.

We know you depend on us to keep you informed, up to date and entertained 365 days a year and we want to make sure we’re broadcasting no matter the weather. On Valley Gives Day your contribution to NEPR will literally help keep us on the air in your home, your car, at work - anywhere you need us!

A back-up generator will cost the station $40,000 and with your help we can reach that goal! All gifts made on Valley Gives Day will go directly to this special fund. We appreciate your additional support!

Thanks to all the spark plugs, the jumper cables and the kilowatt givers out there who make a donation today!
