KIRA FM

KIRA is a developing noncommercial organization working to launch something the Omaha community doesn’t currently have: a truly local, independent, community-powered radio station. Our goal is to build a broadcast service that elevates local voices on the air — one that amplifies local culture, local journalism, local music, and the real conversations happening in Omaha.

This station will:

  • Broadcast local news, music, arts and public affairs programming free of charge

  • Showcase regional musicians, creators, DJs and personalities

  • Provide broadcast training and airtime for community members

  • Partner with schools, nonprofits, businesses and civic organizations

  • Serve as a platform for diverse voices

Donations can be submitted to our fiscal sponsor, Amplify Arts
