When the world feels chaotic, there’s comfort in knowing that beauty still exists in the shared joy of classical music on WTJU.
But this music needs YOU today. Right now, WTJU faces the greatest threat in our history. With the recent cancellation of federal funding, WTJU now faces a $152,000 annual budget gap — this year and every year to come.
Please join us for WTJU’s 2025 Classical Marathon, filling the airwaves with a week of inspiring symphonies, chamber music, and creative crossovers from December 8th through 14th.
Each day brings special programs curated by our volunteer hosts, from the familiar and beloved to the lesser known and brand new. We’ve even lined up five nights of live performances from students at Charlottesville High School, Albemarle High School, and the University of Virginia.
As WTJU faces this urgent funding situation, we need you to help protect classical music on our community airwaves. Please make your most generous contribution today to sustain this tradition of excellence and discovery.
Even better, sustain the sound of WTJU with a monthly gift to ensure stability and predictability in our funding. Help safeguard free access to the music that enriches your life and thousands of others.
Your support today will help WTJU protect and share this essential music. While it won’t be easy, we can overcome this together.
