The Central Michigan Amateur Radio club has accepted another generous offer for a matching donation fund raiser. This will help your local club to continue the benefits of providing free classes, helping with community events, our emergency communications trailer insurances and upkeep, and field day 2026.

Our anonymous donor, as before, will match dollar for dollar up to $1,500.00 for any donation made to C.M.A.R.C. between March 13th and June 12th. 2026

Previously, many people were very generous and CMARC exceeded our fund raiser goal which went a long way to keeping our award-winning club providing classes free of charge and providing food and activities.

Your donation would go a long way to helping us keep the discipline of HAM radio alive.

Our Treasurer, Gordy Smith (KE8JKS) will be accepting and keeping track of all donations.

There are three ways you can participate:
1.) See Gordy at the club meetings and he will accept your donation in person.
2.) Use our Pay Pal link: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/centralmiarc If using PayPal, make sure you indicate in the note that your contribution is for the fundraiser!
3.) Mail your check. Make check payable to “Central Michigan Amateur Radio Club” c/o
