This season, WERS and Taza Chocolate are forming the sweetest partnership yet by bringing you the music and programs you love paired with delicious direct trade stone ground chocolate.
Send chocolates to your loved ones (or treat yourself, we won’t judge!) all while keeping the music playing strong.
In 2012, Shpresa Lleshaj was surfing SoundCloud in Sweden and eventually stumbled upon the profile of Minneapolis native Cole Randall. The pair eventually started messaging each other and had intentions to collaborate long distance. However, the more they interacted, the more they were drawn to each other. After a while, their messaging turned into phone calls, and their phone calls turned into video chats. Soon after, Lleshaj traveled to Minneapolis to finally meet Randall in person. They moved to Sweden together and started making music.
Each holiday season, WERS asks for your support of the music and programs you love and in return, we pledge to donate one hour of service for every $500 raised in support of the station. We call it our Community Service fundraiser and last year, fans of independent and local music stood up and gave generously sponsoring more than 200 hours of community service. Now it’s time for us to make good on this promise.
Volunteer with us as for a lunch shift at Rosie’s Place from February 5 – March 1
