Dear Friend,
Thanks to your support, PBS and our member stations fulfill our essential mission to provide loyal viewers with programming that is uniquely different from commercial broadcasting, treating our viewers as citizens rather than consumers.
As we strive for excellence, I wanted to share some highlights of how PBS and your local member station are uniquely making a difference in the lives of so many:
PBS Entertains and Informs More Households Over
the course of a year, 89% of all U.S. television households watch PBS. We are accessible in every household, in every community, opening new doors for children and adults regardless of where they live or how much money they make.
Parents Trust PBS Parents say PBS KIDS is the most educational media brand for children by a four to one margin. And studies confirm that kids who watched PBS KIDS’ SUPER WHY! performed 46% better on standardized tests than those who didn’t.
PBS Impacts Your Community Our local member stations meet the unique needs of their communities, through programs like on-air GED’s, jobs training initiatives, and teacher training and classroom services. Connect with your local PBS station
and see what they are doing in your community.
It’s no wonder PBS is trusted, valued and essential. Thank you for your support of PBS and your local PBS station. And for more good things from PBS, check out pbs.org.
