It’s the season of giving and day after day, you depend on WUSF to give you trusted news coverage and insightful stories and conversations. As a public service, we depend on the public— on YOU­­— for funding that fuels these stories. When you give to WUSF, you give the gift of award-winning journalism to our entire community.

During our Holiday Campaign, we hope you join with your neighbors to invest in WUSF ensuring that everyone in the Tampa Bay region has free access to trusted news and information. Your generosity today will keep the facts flowing into 2023 and beyond. Become a new member or a sustaining member by clicking the donate now button below or by calling or texting the word “DONATE” to 877-330-1024. Thank you for your support.

If you're new to Florida, or the Tampa Bay region, you may be surprised to learn—the South is actually north of us! And one southern city on every history buff’s list is Savannah, Georgia. Nothing quite matches the southern charm, and architectural beauty of Historic Savannah—especially this time of the year. WUSF Public Media wants to give you and a guest a chance to explore this 270-year-old southern beauty, in a completely new way. We’ll get your trip back in time started by first class rail, in your own roomette, complete with a dedicated attendant in your car. You’ll spend three days and three nights right in the heart of Savannah's National Historic Landmark District at a boutique hotel and the rest is up to you! So, if you’ve never been—or you’ve been a hundred times—this trip is sure to be uniquely you!

A Special Thank You

During our Holiday Campaign, you can select to opt out of receiving a thank you gift for yourself, and instead do “twice the good” by selecting one of our partner organizations that are assisting in Hurricane Ian relief efforts.

WUSF will direct the cost normally spent on branded items, (about 6-10% of an annual contribution) to the organization you choose. Simply select the organization you would like to receive your “thank you gift” in the drop-down menu on the donation page, and we will do the rest! It’s quick and easy—and means a great deal to our neighbors in need. Thank you!
