Your Help is Critically Important Now Every time you come to WIPB, you’re in for an extraordinary experience. It’s an experience that fulfills your need for learning, growth and joy… an experience that broadens your exposure to fascinating people, cultures and ideas… an experience that’s smart, distinctive, and just for you. Today, I write with a special sense of urgency because the cost to bring you the PBS programs you appreciate and rely on unexpectedly increased by $90,000 this year and was not in our current budget. This means our annual membership goal has increased to $275,000. We simply must turn to you to ask you to make a greater commitment to programs that make a difference — programs like Mystery!...Nova… Masterpiece…Great Performances... Antiques Roadshow…Sesame Street...and more. The fact is these costs represent the true value of what WIPB can offer – the belief that media can do more – that it can foster discovery, inspire empowerment, and build understanding in our increasingly diverse, complex, and ever-changing world. Nowhere else can you find the doors flung open to the world 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Only on WIPB. As 2013 rapidly comes to a close, and we prepare for another year of important television that touches our hearts and minds, I ask you to make your vital yearend contribution to WIPB to sustain this valuable work. These are essential stories. These are magical moments. This is the kind of
television you relish and need. Made possible only though your generosity. WIPB is a rare and marvelous idea — your home for exceptional public television. This is the place where we come, not to tear each other down, but to open ourselves up to human connection and the vibrant exploration of the world around us. Sometimes we’re surprised. Sometimes we’re concerned. Sometimes we’re amazed at the kernels of wisdom we would not have encountered if it weren’t for WIPB. From the daring journalism of Frontline to the awe-inspiring science of Nova to the gentle friendships formed with Clifford the Big Red Dog and Curious George, people who bring WIPB in to their lives truly benefit from a ceaseless dedication to truth, discovery and wonder. With so much in the world that’s simply ordinary, I ask you today to back an idea that’s truly extraordinary — an idea that brings the world home to everyone who lives here. Please make your critical year-end gift now. Help fund a future filled with more great programs. It means so much. With deep appreciation,
Alice J. Van Dyke, General Manager P.S. Your generous year-end support now will help WIPB meet our $90,000 program cost increase and be ready to meet another year with brilliant television for everyone to enjoy. Please make your vital contribution now. Thank you!
