We need your help to stay paywall free

We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.

If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.

Will you be one of the 5%?

As part of the agreement, Chamber members and their dependents will receive significant tuition discounts. Employees of member organizations are eligible for a 20% reduction on accelerated undergraduate and graduate courses through MSMU’s Division of Continuing Studies (DCS). Dependents under the age of 23 will qualify for a minimum 60% discount on traditional undergraduate coursework at MSMU’s main campus in Emmitsburg.
