Drive Matches Focus Fund
Inspire others to become members and give.
Friends of SDPB was founded in 1974 with the sole goal of supporting the SDPB network. In the early days, membership drives were the primary source of revenue. Fifty years later, membership drives remain critically important to the long-term success of every public media station, including SDPB.
It’s pretty simple – drive matches work. Donors who support SDPB through a match inspire others to become members and give during our on-air membership drives. Growing membership is crucial – allowing us to serve more South Dakotans through its high-quality, community-focused programming and providing financial sustainability.
Opportunities typically range from $5,000 to $50,000, but matching gifts can be made in nearly any amount and in any format. If desired, on-air recognition of your matching gift can highlight your family, foundation, or even your company.
