Wish List
One of the myriad creative ways All Classical is enhanced and supported is through in-kind gifts of goods or services. All individual or business donors receive a written thank you for tax purposes as well as recognition on our website, and in our annual report. There’s no better or ‘greener’ way to support and sustain the mission of this radio service here in the Pacific Northwest.
If you are interested in saying Thank You for the Music, please email Office@AllClassical.org or call between the hours of 8:30 am and 5pm (Pacific) at 503-943-5828 (local) or 888-306-5277 (toll free). You can donate these items or provide the funds so that we can purchase these unbudgeted items. Thank you for considering this special method of supporting All Classical and helping us to complete these necessary projects.
Current Needs as of Fall 2009
Digital Console for Master Control
More Details
Thanks to the Samuel S. Johnson Foundation we are $15,000 closer to purchasing new digital consoles for Master Control and Production. The current consoles are the final piece of analog equipment in All Classical’s production chain. New digital consoles mean that All Classical comes to you 100% digitally from start to finish. This project will iron out some of the nagging production issues we struggle with on a day to day basis.
In order to take advantage of The Johnson Foundation’s grant an additional $40,000 is needed from supporters like you! Would you consider earmarking a special gift for this project? Perhaps even part of it? Please help us start the ball rolling!

4x4 Pick-Up Truck
More Details
Our engineer needs a 4x4 pick-up truck that gets great gas mileage to haul equipment to and from our stations in Hood River, The Dalles and the coast.
Because we will be keeping the truck for station use, the full fair-market-value of the vehicle will be tax-deductible.
If you have a used truck you'd like to donate to the station, please give us a call!

We are asking our supporters to donate to cover these final expenditures. Any help is appreciated!
Out of Pocket Costs:
Furniture $0
Furniture Installation $TBD
Carpet/Pad $1000
Carpet Installation $500
Total Needed: $1500
Our thanks to Environments and The Rug Bug for their help!
Front Office-Desks
More Details
Up next is our front office downstairs. We will be reconfiguring the space so staffers can work in a happier and healthier environment.
We have a need for:
7 glass top desks @ $300 ea = $2100
Ergonomic Chairs
More Details
In an ideal world, our staff would be working from ergonomically designed office chairs. Our dream would be to have someone donate the funds or secure 25 chairs like the one pictured below. These can cost as much as $699. We have found a superb alternative for just $199! We need 25 chairs.
Total: $5000
Green Room
More Details
A comfortable place for our special guests to wait is greatly needed.
2 or 3 chairs @ $75 ea
Small glass top table $200
Door, windows, blinds, paint ~$1500
Total: $2000
Hallway Beautification
More Details
a) Put your name on our new wall-sized World Map! We have listeners from around the world represented on our new map, and for a gift of $1000 we’ll name the map for you! This map has become a wonderful conversation piece and gathering point in our station. Imagine dedicating this map to a loved one and having an engraved plaque designating the All Classical map in honor of the classical music fan or radio lover in your life!
b) Help us pay for a new gallery of beautiful headshots of all our on-air personalities. “The Face Behind the Voice” wall cost $200 for prints, frames, and signage.
c) In addition to the above, we have new framed art representing the regions we broadcast to.
Track lighting is much needed in the hall to highlight our recent improvements. This project is estimated to cost close to $900. Are you in a position to help?
