BECOME A BFF.FM BESTIE

Since launching our Besties program, you've allowed us to take some big steps to grow BFF.fm. Your sustaining support has helped us:

  • upgrade our streaming server- there are fewer drops and outages than ever, meaning more interrupted tunage for you!
  • hire out first full-time employee- our general manager is responsible for day-to-day operations and leading the station’s growth as an arts organization. You're a job creator!
  • expand our live events across the Bay- thanks to your sustaining support, we were able to launch a new bi-weekly concert series, MUSH, in Jack London Square this summer...absolutely FREE to the community.
  • welcome great new DJs to our community-whether or not they have the ability to pay monthly dues to the station.
  • draft our first strategic plan- creating an exciting vision for our future.

You made all that great stuff happen in just one year! Imagine what we achieve with even more Besties on board.

Each one of our volunteer DJs pays monthly dues to cover BFF.fm's rent, streaming expenses, and music royalties. Become a dedicated listener Bestie by clicking the “Support This Show” button on your favorite show’s page. It’s the best way to say "thanks for keeping me company during my day!” You’ll get all the same perks as a regular Bestie, but your donation will directly support the program you choose, up to their full dues amount each year.
