Can I donate something other than a car to Mississippi Public Broadcasting?
Yes! Boats, ATVs, dirtbikes, personal watercraft can all provide necessary funds to help support Mississippi Public Broadcasting.
Mississippi has about 825,0000 vehicles registered across the state. The average vehicle in the North Star State is 13.7 years old, more than two years older than the national average. That means there are tens of thousands of cars sitting around in the state that you wouldn’t pay to fix if somebody dared you. But forgotten, unused, unloved cars are a great source of funding for your favorite local public radio station.
While the best part of donating a car in Mississippi is the support you provide to the people who deliver news, music and insightful talk to your radio every single day, the second best part is how easy it is to donate.
My car won’t run. Is it still ok to donate to a Mississippi Public Radio station?
Yes! If your vehicle is currently clogging up your driveway because it died sometime around the period when Punky Brewster was on the air, we’ll help you get rid of it and you’ll put it to good use. A vehicle donation is a great way to move that car along and support your favorite public radio station.
