If you chose to receive one of our membership benefit items, the fair market value of items offered are as follows: Mugs $6, T-Shirts $15, Sweatshirts $20.

Q. Why did I receive my renewal notice before my expiration date?
A. Renewing your membership prior to its expiration date helps ensure you don't miss any issues of the KWMU quarterly program card, "The Guide." Many KWMU members prefer to pay their membership as part of their monthly bills, so the early notice can easily be incorporated into their household's budget planning. Whenever your payment is received, your membership is extended one year from the end of your current anniversary date.
