Financial Support

How to financially support LifeStyle 74

This radio station is essentially non-commercial, independent, and not controlled or financed by any religious, philosophical, or political organization.

LifeStyle 74 is a local labor of love. Our team is largely composed of volunteers, most of whom work at home.  Management personnel and the board of directors serve without remuneration of any kind. Only three of our staff receive salaries, of about minimum French wage.

LifeStyle 74 (formerly Radio 74) is on your radio today thanks to public goodwill, and voluntary cash contributions from individual listeners and families.  Most of our financial support comes directly from listeners.

Under 5% comes from commercial advertising and some years we receive a state subsidy.

Donate to who?

Donations in Switzerland are exclusively made through the HOME AND FAMILY LIFE Association.  100% of all donations made to that organization are transfered to RADIO 74 Suisse or LifeStyle 74 in France.

How much should I send ?

Many listeners send 30, 50, 100 or 500 CH/EU per month.  Some people send more, others less.  There is no fixed amount, and there are no memberships.  Your gifts of any size are gratefully received and wisely managed.

As a donor, you will receive the NEWSLETTER at most 4 times a year.
