As a member-owned co-operative, Co-op Radio does not have one owner – we have approximately 30,000 owners. Since we do not accept commercial advertising, we remain accountable to those who matter most, our listeners and members. By becoming a member of Co-op Radio, you become a part-owner of your own media and have a say in how the station is run. Every year, our members meet at our Annual General Meeting (AGM) to make important decisions about the future of the station and to vote on a Board of Directors.
Youth in 57 Minutes is run solely by volunteer youth and in order to keep the show running each year, Y57 has to fundraise $2000/year. There are many ways to show your support for the show:
- Buy tickets to their annual fundraiser, Battle of the Bands Competition
- Donate to the youth run radio show through Co-op Radio’s charity and mention Y57
- Become a member! Here is how to become a Co-op Member and make sure you name Y57 as your favorite program!
- Contact Anna Ho at fund@y57.ca to see how you can help Y57!
Thank you all who keep Youth in 57 Minutes running!
