THE FIRST ALBERTA CAMPUS RADIO ASSOCIATION

Edmonton, Alberta, T6G2J7 Canada

Mission Statement

CJSR’s mandate is “to enlighten and entertain our audience through high quality and diverse programming that constantly challenges the status quo”. We do this by broadcasting eclectic programming that enriches the lives of U of A students as well as the broader Edmonton community.

About This Cause

We are Edmonton’s only independent, volunteer powered campus-community radio station, broadcasting from an old bank vault in the basement of the Students’ Union Building on the University of Alberta campus. Broadcasting in 8 different languages we seek to reflect and meet the needs of our diverse community of listeners and donors in and around the Edmonton area. In addition to our wide selection of music programming we also produce a dozen news and spoken word programs to present a side of the story not always found in mainstream media. CJSR has a volunteer base of approximately 300 volunteers, with a staff of 5 to manage and support them all. We are a member-driven organization governed by an elected Board of Directors, representing our members/volunteers. We are a registered charity and are registered provincially as a not for profit organization. We are funded by several streams of income including: levies from U of A undergraduate and graduate students, provincial gaming revenue (AGLC, every 2 years), donations from listeners (annual FunDrive campaign), grants (variable) and advertising revenue (local).
