IPR is the pulse of Interlochen. Our listener-supported News and Classical Music stations connect the people of northern Michigan to each other—and the world—by broadcasting music, news, and culture, with comprehensive listener participation. The IPR signal amplifies the dynamic spirit of our campus, our alumni, and our community both down the street and around the globe. Last year, more than 4,300 people honored the important role IPR plays in their daily lives by making a gift of support. These gifts are essential to providing quality, nuanced programming that reflects Interlochen’s commitment to excellence. Science and Conservation Desk This year, IPR News Radio recognized the need to deepen science and conservation reporting, and asked the community to help fund this initiative. Dozens of generous donors, led by The Brookby Foundation and the Mariel Foundation, came forward to make the Science and Conservation Desk a reality. Their support made it possible to offer residents and visitors a more complete picture of the complicated ecological issues impacting Michigan’s globally rare natural resources, as well as support other data-driven science journalism that impacts their everyday lives.
