Volunteering at KGNU

KGNU is fueled by creative and dedicated people, keeping our airwaves alive and thriving - in music, public affairs, or working behind the scenes.

The first step is to attend a Volunteer Orientation.

New volunteer orientations are held the first Thursday of odd numbered months.

Orientations are currently held online.

You can attend a virtual orientation by signing up here. A Zoom link to attend the orientation will be sent an hour before the event begins.
