Visions March 2025 by KETv

TODAY’S KET

KET was founded more than 60 years ago with the vision that every Kentuckian, no matter their circumstance, would have access to educational programs and services. Through the years, the combined investment of federal, state and private funding has built KET into one of the most respected public broadcasting networks in the nation.

State funding provides the crucial operational foundation for the statewide network, and grants from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting make KET’s unique local productions possible, such as Kentucky Life and Kentucky Tonight with Renee Shaw. Your essential contributions provide funding for the purchase of programs, including All Creatures Great and Small, Nature, NOVA, Antiques Roadshow, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, Doc Martin, Classic Movies, and many others.

These diverse funding sources provide a successful public-private partnership that supports Kentucky’s statewide public broadcasting network and makes everything about KET possible.

During TeleFund, we hope you will consider renewing or increasing your contribution and encourage others to do the same. Please go to KET.org, call 800-866-0366, or mail your check to KET 600 Cooper Drive, Lexington KY 40502

It’s all made possible by viewers like you!

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Shae Hopkins KET Executive Director and CEO
