How you can support us

Hunter at Sunrise is a labor of love for the people who work hard to bring a wide variety of acoustic and eclectic music to those who appreciate a sense of discovery in radio programming - listeners who wish to hear hundreds of amazing artists they're unlikely to hear elsewhere to help them wake up on a Sunday morning.

While not intending to profit from the effort, it does take a certain amount of time and money to produce Hunter at Sunrise and maintain the website. It would be great if we could at least break even.

You can help ensure that Hunter at Sunrise will continue to provide its audience with exceptional music programming, as well as continue its ongoing support and exposure to deserving artists for which the program has become so appreciated, by offering financial support through any of the methods described here:
