UA Little Rock Public Radio begins Fall Fund Drive with sweet treats at Loblolly Creamery
UA Little Rock Public Radio, home of KUAR FM 89.1 and KLRE Classical 90.5, will kick off its annual Fall Fund Drive with an ice cream fundraiser Sunday, Oct. 6.
Loblolly Creamery, 1423 S Main St. in Little Rock, will host the public radio fundraiser from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Public radio fans can try a featured This AmeriCONE Life sundae with All Toppings Considered or order their favorite flavors.
Loblolly Creamery will donate 10 percent of all sales and $1 from each special sundae to UA Little Rock Public Radio. All proceeds will support the reporting, music, and cultural programming on central Arkansas’s two public radio stations.
Public radio staff members will be on site from 6-7 p.m., including Sarah Kellogg, host of “Morning Edition,” Daniel Breen, host of “All Things Considered,” and News Director Michael Hibblen.
UA Little Rock Public Radio has a goal of raising $100,000 during its Fall Fund Drive, which runs Saturday, Oct. 5, to Friday, Oct. 11.
Donors may be eligible for thank-you gifts, including “Public Radio Nerd” pint glasses, tickets to the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, and a copy of “Big Taste of Little Rock.”
