Help Us Help You

97.9 The Hill and Chapelboro.com is the voice of our community.

Since 1953, we have delivered your daily local news. Now, both on-air and online, we continue to work diligently — connecting our community to local information, businesses, government, events, sports, music, pets and more. We are proud to be your local newsroom, every day.

We are one of the only distributors of local news in Chapel Hill and the surrounding area, and one of the few remaining privately-owned local radio stations in the country.

But we need your help.

As always, your news comes to you completely free of charge.  Chapelboro.com does not charge subscription fees. By contributing, your dollars directly support the operations of 97.9 The Hill and Chapelboro.com. This includes — but is not limited to — broadcasting equipment, office space and paying our hard-working, dedicated staff.

The work of 97.9 The Hill WCHL and Chapelboro.com is historically advertiser-supported through partnerships with local businesses who, like us, have been impacted economically by COVID-19.  This also means that your contributions help other local businesses connect to our community.  We are privately (and locally) owned by Chapel Hill Media Group, which is not a 501(c)(3) organization.

Your investment will help ensure 97.9 The Hill WCHL & Chapelboro.com can continue to serve this community and provide news and information at no cost to people who may not have access to it otherwise.  

Please make a financial contribution today.
