Give the Gift of "Sight Through Sound"
this Holiday Season

"I haven't been able to read newspapers for years. This excellent service is a connection between me and my community." - Alice M., Audio-Reader Listener

This past year has been an exciting one for Audio-Reader. We remain a premier audio information service, winning six awards at the international industry conference, we have over 450 volunteers, and we continue to reach new listeners, like Alice M., and have an impact in their life each and every day.
We are extremely proud of these accomplishments but none of these could happen without YOU, our supporter.

This is also Audio-Reader's first year operating in the 50% funding deficit from the University of Kansas. We are working hard to cut costs and increase contributions so that our listeners can continue to receive our services for free, but we need your help!

During this holiday season, please consider renewing your support for Audio-Reader. When you give the gift of sight through sound, your support goes directly to sharing news, information, entertainment, theater and the arts with thousands of listeners across Kansas, Missouri, and beyond. Your gift connects a listener with her community. Your gift makes a difference.
