Have a question?

Yes, while giving money to the Ave Maria Radio Guild provides support for the general fund for operating expenses, you may designate a gift for something very specific. To accomplish this, please contact the Development Office with your request. Examples of other funds in support of Ave Maria Radio include the Endowment Fund or the Equipment Fund. For more information, please contact Tony Gerring, Director of Advancement Services, at 734-930-4528 or email him at tgerring@avemariaradio.net.
