Just to clarify the issue: the fundraisers WCRB used to run before
the dumbing-down process under Mario Mazza came on the scene were 
for the benefit of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and not for 
the station itself.  
KING-FM in Seattle and WFMT in Chicago are hybrid stations
that are non-profit but run commercials too, and from time to time
run fundraisers to benefit each outlet.
