Fall Membership Drive November 7th through 14th
The Summit FM has been part of our community since 1955 and has been serving up commercial-free, true music diversity since 1986. We’re here to bring you fantastic, unique music that connects listeners across 21 counties.
But 2025 has brought one of our toughest challenges yet. The federal Corporation for Public Broadcasting funding we’ve relied on for more than 30 years was rescinded overnight — a major pillar of our support, gone.
Still, we’re Here to Stay — with your help.
Your support helps us:
- Donate 700+ instruments to students through the Marilyn Stroud Music Alive Program
- Fund scholarships for seniors overcoming adversity
- Host the 330 Day Concert, showcasing 100 Northeast Ohio artists to 5,000 fans over 8 years — free to attend every year
- Welcome 500+ artists into Studio C, from The Avett Brothers to The War & Treaty
- Promote Summit Wellness through 3,000+ PSAs on mental health and recovery
We remain proudly independent — no news, no sports, no politics — just great, diverse music. Now, without CPB funding, your membership matters more than ever. Something this unique, this community-driven, is worth preserving.
Please pledge your support today at TheSummit.fm or call (330) 761-3099. Whether a one-time gift or a sustaining membership, your contribution ensures we’re truly Here to Stay.
