It All Starts with You
PBS North Carolina exists because of members and viewers
like you. Every day, your generous support ensures that our
programming and services continue to shine as a trusted
beacon for all who call North Carolina home.
MEMBERS PLAY AN ESSENTIAL ROLE
AT PBS NORTH CAROLINA
Did you know that donations from individual donors make
up more than half of PBS North Carolina’s operating budget?
Cassandra, a member from Greensboro, shares why she
gives to PBS North Carolina:
“
I moved a lot as a child, but one thing
that was always constant as a friend and
companion throughout my life—PBS! It has
never let me down. On nights I couldn’t
sleep with life’s worries, even as an adult,
PBS always kept me engaged in something
informative. From faraway places that I can
explore right from my living room to great
historical places to visit here in my own state
of North Carolina, PBS has me covered. There
is no greater place to donate than right here.
PBS is a part of the family because now my
grandchildren get to enjoy it as well.
I will always support it! We love PBS!”
Friends like you ensure PBS North Carolina can give life to
memorable storytelling, meaningful conversations and
exceptional educational content. Thank you for your support!
