Fall Pledge Drive 2026

How the KNPR Classic Pledge Drive works

This fall, KNPR's membership drive is a friendly competition between Las Vegas neighborhoods — 8 neighborhoods, fourteen days, one MVP — because public radio is a neighborhood thing. When you tune into KNPR, you're part of a massive, shared moment. You're reacting to the same news, at the same time, as thousands of other people across the region. It’s that rare feeling of an entire community being on the exact same page. Keeping this connection alive takes all of us stepping up to support the station.

Entering the competition is easy: just claim your neighborhood when you make your gift. Every dollar turns into a point for your side of town, and the area with the highest score at the end of the drive wins the Neighborhood MVP sticker for every single donor who helped them take the title.
