WMMT’s blend of local news, public affairs, and 24/7 radio is vital to the community landscape in Eastern Kentucky. Your gifts sustain our work and allows us to make important upgrades, repairs, and continue bringing you impactful stories and content about Whitesburg, Eastern Kentucky, and the surrounding central Appalachian region. No matter how little you give, we THANK YOU from the bottom of our possum hearts for giving the gift of community radio!

NEW to WMMT: Join the Possum Club!  By committing to a small monthly donation to WMMT, you unlock exclusive access to events, behind the scenes footage, and more. PLUS, you'll get a gift as a token of our appreciation every fund drive. 

When you donate a vehicle to WMMT, you can actually turn your car into the programs you rely on and love. Your gift makes a difference at WMMT. In addition to supporting your favorite community radio shows, we’ll tow your vehicle for free, and your donation is tax deductible.

Donating a car is fast, easy and secure. Our community radio colleagues at CARS, Inc. accept almost any vehicle—running or not—including cars, trucks, RVs, and motorcycles. We work with CARS, Inc. to ensure that your donation delivers the highest possible return and that your experience is simple and convenient.

Why Donate your car?

There are several great reasons, like:

1. You don’t want to worry about selling your vehicle.
2. It is too expensive to repair your vehicle.
3. You don’t trust your car to be safe on the road.
4. You need a tax write-off.

But the most important reason is that your donation will help us keep mountain community radio going strong!

WMMT is always looking for new volunteers! Whether you have an idea for a show, would like to be a substitute DJ (either in general or for a specific show/genre), would like to learn to use our equipment to produce your very own story, or have any idea whatsoever that you think we could help with / be a part of (feel free, if not encouraged, to get creative here), then get in touch!

Our community DJs keep our station running; on any given schedule, we have over 50 regular DJs in rotation, each with a weekly show. Let us know if you’re interested by registering for training below!

If you’re new to underwriting, it’s a unique, effective way to invest in your organization (and it also happens to support the best little radio station in the whole wide world): a short message describing your organization is regularly read aloud and on-air, either during our programming throughout the week or during a specific show of your choosing. Think of it as a nonprofit radio-friendly version of advertising. 

Add your name to the growing list of businesses, organizations, and individuals who use WMMT to get their message to a broad local, regional, and national audience. We also have unlimited listeners worldwide on our internet stream.

We can be your neighbor spreading the good word about your business. In our region, radio is still a very powerful advertising tool. Combine that with our Real People Radio-friendly messaging, our listeners will learn to trust you and can be assured that you support a healthy community here in the mountains.

While commercial radio ads sometimes feel they need to scream to get your attention, WMMT works less like a megaphone and more like a neighbor spreading the word about your business. Listeners hear about your organization from real people.
