Nearly 90 percent of our funding comes from individual listener-members. We have no large corporate sponsors.

Why "Your Radio for Peace"?
Two very simple reasons:
(1) When you become a member of KPFT, it's your radio station. You are a voting member of the station and a stakeholder in its direction.
(2) All of the news, informative shows and mix of music you won't find anywhere else are all aimed at one goal-to help people like you and me understand the world around us, and through that understanding and respect, cause an outbreak of peace.
