Welcome to our new volunteer feature: CHIRP Champions! We'll be using this space to highlight special folks within the CHIRP sphere who have been recognized by their peers for making extraordinary contributions to the organization. Next up is Volunteer Coordinator Caroline Pendleton!
What first drew you to get involved with CHIRP, and how long have you been with the organization?
I moved to Chicago from Austin, TX in July 2022 (happy 2nd Chicagoversary to me!) and started volunteering with CHIRP in November of that year. I've been involved with radio in some capacity since DJing in college (KNTU at the University of North Texas)––CHIRP seemed like a surefire way to get dialed into the local music scene and meet new folks!

What first drew you to get involved with CHIRP, and how long have you been with the organization?
I started just about a year ago, so I'm still a newbie compared to a lot of folks! CHIRP was the first station I found when I drove into the city to look for an apartment (with the range of the signal what it is, that really feels like fate). I was hooked from then, and when I was six months in to living in the city and still feeling disconnected, I turned to volunteering at the station to help me find a sense of community and place. It's delivered!
