For over 25 years, WHFR Radio has been committed to being a voice of fresh, local, and alternative programming here in the Dearborn/Detroit area and on the web at whfr.fm. It can only continue with your financial support. RADIOTHON is the only time we interrupt our programming to ask for your help. Over 60% of WHFR's operating budget comes from listener support and underwriting dollars. WHFR uses the money we raise from our pledge drive for the essentials and basic needs, literally to keep the station on the air. Every dollar makes a difference, so please help in any way you can.

WHFR Radio is holding its ONCE-A-YEAR pledge drive April 10th – 16th, with live concerts and special on-air events.

This year’s Radiothon live events kick off early with a WHFR Electronic Music Benefit at Bailey’s Pub and Grille in Dearborn on Saturday, April 9th (22091 Michigan Ave.), featuring local DJ's who have performed on WHFR's "The Mix" music show. John Marius, manager of Myth Records will headline.

Dynamic vocalist J.C. Westwood will perform LIVE on Thursday 5-6pm for "Motor Live Drive @ 5".
