Frequently Asked Questions

Events selected for RSVPA 's radio segment on witf 89.5 & 93.3 are taken directly from witf's RSVPA calendar. Events are chosen by their artistic and cultural benefit to the community – events such as auctions, sales or fundraisers are not considered. Please be aware that there are only a limited number of events that can be chosen throughout the week due to the time constraints of the radio segment, and every effort is made to find a variety of events and locations.  Not all events submitted can be included in our on-air listings, but all approved events will appear in the on-line calendar.

Central PA Magazine subscriptions should be received by the last week of the preceding month of publication.  If you have not received the issue by then please call 717-255-8150.

witf offers thank you gifts (CDs, DVDs, mugs, tote bags, performance tickets) to extend our donors’ enjoyment of our programming and to offer a tangible thank you in return for their financial support. The gifts are merely a token of appreciation; your support as a donor goes to paying for the programs and services that benefit you and the community.

Donors may request not to receive a thank you gift, so that the full value of their contribution will go towards programming and operations.

• witf will replace any defective or damaged gift. Please return the item within 30 days of receipt.

• We do not offer refunds unless the item is defective or damaged.

• Tickets to performances are available only when paid by credit card. witf cannot offer refunds if you are unable to attend the performance.

• If we make an error in processing your order, please call us at 717-704-3000 (ext. 3) to let us know. We will send you the correct item along with a postage-paid envelope to return the incorrect item.

• According to IRS rules, your contribution to witf is tax-deductible minus the value of the thank-you gift: for example, a $125 contribution minus $12 for the CD, for a tax-deductible contribution of $113. The value of the thank you gift is noted on your receipt. We are not able to offer a refund if you are dissatisfied with the tax-deductibility of the gift.
