Station Status

With support from donors and volunteers, KRVS accomplished plenty in 2025 despite federal funding cutoffs and austerity imposed by its license holder, UL Lafayette.

Bien merci to everyone who’s reserved places at our holiday soiree – we’re happy to say that Park Bistro is at capacity the night of Thursday, December 11.There’s still a way for you to help KRVS. Our silent auction is live NOW. We’re offering an array of items and experiences just in time for holiday gifting. Here’s where you can find out more and place your bid. Proceeds benefit radio that sounds like home!

How the end of CPB funding and support will make it necessary for KRVS to find other revenues to keep on the air.

Here’s where we are: Congress has voted to end Corporation for Public Broadcasting grants that have supplied one-third of KRVS’ annual revenue. Since the White House executive order in May that urged the withdrawal of already allocated federal funding for public radio and TV, we’ve kept you current with developments.

Without federal grant money, we're not able to offer the variety of music, heritage language and information programs that enrich your life.
