MESSAGE FROM THE DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
On behalf of the staff, hosts and volunteers here at WWFM The
Classical Network and JazzOn2, I hope this 2012-2013 annual report
finds you enjoying WWFM as you read!
The Classical Network and JazzOn2 has improved our global reach
both through streaming services and our innovative free webcasts (on
The Classical Network). Through our real-time website playlist option,
listeners worldwide can identify what is currently playing. Our bimonthly e-newsletter gives subscribers a heads-up on classical concert
broadcasts and highlights of our specialty shows.
WWFM has established our planned giving program, The Perpetuo
Circle. For more information on joining those who have made an
enduring gift to The Classical Network, please call or write me here at
WWFM. And, please inform me if you HAVE included WWFM in your
estate planning. I would like to send you a Perpetuo Circle lapel pin.
Every April is Jazz Appreciation month and this year JazzOn2 held
an open house on Sunday April 6th to kick off the month. Jazz hosts,
old and new, came together to celebrate this American music form and
share good times. The day’s programming featured a preview of all our
locally produced programs as well as some of the national syndicated
programs we carry. As part of the community programming format, we
broadcast the Trenton, NJ mayoral forum on JazzOn2.
Our emphasis on sustainability brings you programming from partner
stations and partner musical institutions. With these partnerships, we
add to our already rich programming and offer more focus on our
unique community music resources. Because of our commercial-free
format, WWFM plays music every hour of every day.
Truly, none of this could happen without you. Through it all, more than
30 years ago, that is the one constant.
Thank you for helping to make it possible for us to continue to bring to
you the unique, entertaining, engaging, enriching programming that is
WWFM The Classical Network.

REPORT TO OUR MEMBERS
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
The end of the 2012-13 fiscal year brought with it the beginning of a
fourth decade of quality programming at WWFM, and it is gratifying
to see a continuation of the progress and innovation that has made the
station a favorite for more than a generation.
WHY YOUR MEMBERSHIP MATTERS
EXPENSES
This past year WWFM marked its 30th anniversary with many of the
listeners and donors that have been loyal patrons of the station from
the very beginning. WWFM continues to earn that loyalty through
expansion of its classical music offerings, such as the new Noontime
Concerts, the introduction of new shows, including “Wolf Notes” and
“A Little Night Music,” and developing close partnerships with area
performing arts organizations.
Mercer County Community College is proud to host WWFM and
support a commitment to excellence that listeners of The Classical
Network have come to appreciate from New Jersey’s only 24-hour
classical music station. With the expansion of WWFM’s broadcasts
into the Philadelphia and New York markets, lovers of the world’s
greatest music from Connecticut to Delaware and beyond can enjoy
quality classical music programming originating on our campus in
Mercer County.
None of this would be possible without the generous support of the
community, and the donors who have made quality music programming
a priority. It is through their generosity that WWFM continues to grow
and prosper, and for that, we are very thankful.
I would also like to thank and congratulate the dedicated staff members
of WWFM for their commitment to the world’s greatest music and their
determination to preserve it for the enjoyment of future generations.
With your continued support, WWFM will continue to fulfill that
important mission.
Sincerely,
Dr. Patricia C. Donohue
President
