Friends of CJSR
Our way of saying thank you for supporting independent radio to those who donate, and to showcase our wonderful community businesses.
Made in partnership with Edmontonian merchants and Friends, the Friends of CJSR Card is an annual discount card launched during FunDrive, and created for the people who make CJSR possible: volunteers and donors!
You do not buy this card
Friends of CJSR is an annual discount card, launched each year during FunDrive and made for the people who keep the station going. Volunteer or donate and you get one.
There is a card in your wallet and an app on your phone, for Android and iPhone. Either works at the counter.
Why support local?
Lessen your environmental footprint!
For one, local businesses (like our Friends of CJSR) sell products that are made locally - meaning your awesome new pair of jeans don’t have to be shipped across the seven seas, using hundreds of thousands of gallons of fuel just to get to your door! The earth will thank you for shopping locally!Help to amplify marginalized voices!
Local businesses amplify and empower. Not only are local businesses more likely to sell, promote, and display the work of LGBTQ, Black and Indigenous makers or artists in our community, but they are also more likely to support local organizations and initiatives working to empower marginalized groups within Edmonton.Build Community!
A dollar spent at a local business is a dollar invested into your community! Shopping local creates jobs, and makes Edmonton an all-around cooler city to live in! Who knows - the barista making your coffee just might be your future BFF, business partner, or beau!
If you like empowering community radio, you’ll love our local businesses
