HOW WE MAKE AN IMPACT
We are the only public media news service founded in Delaware and are dedicated
to covering the unique issues, events and culture of Delaware. Delaware Public Media presents high-quality statewide news through audio, video and text media, on air at WDDE 91.1 FM, WMPH 91.7 FM, WMHS 88.1 FM, and online at delawarepublic.org. We collaborate with Delaware State University and University of Delaware, and support students in the Brandywine and Red Clay School Districts at Mount Pleasant and McKean high schools.
GIVING OPPORTUNITIES
We rely on the support of loyal donors to bring the best in NPR and other programming, and Delaware news and stories, to our listeners. One-time gifts as well as sustaining memberships, sponsorships, underwriting and planned giving enable Delaware Public Media to continue offering Delaware-based news and unbiased national reporting.
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Delaware Public Media relies on volunteers throughout the state who serve on our Board of Directors and Community Advisory Board, or who join the phone bank during on-air fund drives! We’re also especially proud to work with students from Delaware State University and University of Delaware who volunteer with us as part of their studies.
