KEXP Donations Raised
Since March of 2020, BECU members have helped us donate nearly $750,000 to KEXP by continuing to use their KEXP debit card.
Live at KEXP Volume 10
Thanks to the overwhelming impact and success of the debit card, BECU and KEXP have collaborated to bring music lovers Live at KEXP Volume 10 - a double album celebrating 20 years of partnership between these two community mainstays. The album features 19 tracks, hand-selected from the KEXP vault, and is available for download at kexp.bandcamp.com.

No - BECU is happy to support local musicians and the KEXP community with every purchase using the KEXP debit card.
Everything KEXP does is made possible through the support of individual donors, volunteers, business supporters, corporate and foundation gifts, and funding from the local, state and federal government. Our donations will help KEXP provide in-person, broadcast, and online programming for a worldwide music community.
