Double Your Impact by Giving
to WHAV During NewsMatch
WHAV’s largest annual fundraiser, NewsMatch, is on, and this year likely marks the most consequential campaign in the nearly 80 years of the WHAV call in Greater Haverhill.
NewsMatch, funded by national foundations, is doubling all new listener and reader donations to WHAV for a limited time. Each new donation up to $1,000 will be matched dollar for dollar. New recurring monthly donations—these help the most—are matched 12x up to the same amount. If you’re an existing WHAV monthly donor, any extra you give will also be matched.
WHAV—radio, 24/7 Live Stream and Wavelengths eNewspaper—joins 436 other nonprofit newsrooms across the country, leveraging more than $7 million from a network of 19 local and national funders to spark community giving, building a base of donors who sustain fact-based reporting.
Donations may be made by choosing from the options below or by mailing checks, payable to WHAV, to 30 How St., Haverhill, MA 01830.
WHAV, founded by news people 80 years ago next March, and rededicated as a nonprofit public station 10 years ago by another generation of news professionals, has no endowment. Each year, WHAV must start over and pay as it goes to deliver the most accurate, reliable and comprehensive local news.
It’s Time to Pay for Local News
At home or the office, your monthly subscriptions pay for cable television, print and online periodicals and more. How about subscribing to WHAV News?
Greater Haverhill’s only public radio station and nonprofit local news service make local news freely available on-air, online, everywhere because an informed public makes for better neighbors, employees, volunteers, customers, leaders and voters. While there is nothing walling you off from this vital information, it still costs money.
Become a Voluntary Subscriber
There’s no question WHAV provides more local news, more news that really matters and more often. This extensive coverage is all the more remarkable when others are cutting back. The nonprofit news model appears to be the winning economic formula for the future, but it relies on your voluntary support. Choose the plan below that works best for you.
After you subscribe, watch for a link to optionally subscribe to the free Wavelengths local eNewspaper by email. You can change or cancel your subscription at the Help Desk at any time.

“I’m a big supporter of WHAV and had an old car to donate. The process was easy, one call and one email. The car was picked up in a matter of days. All with no hassle and WHAV got the proceeds of the sale! I received a letter documenting my donation and my tax deduction! If you have an old vehicle, I encourage you to donate your car to support local news at WHAV.”
