Transforming your dollars into a better-informed public

#publicmediagives

View this email online Yesterday, to help others discover the public news and programming you cherish, we asked you to share what you love about public media. #PublicMediaGives  We asked for your help because you are the "public" in public media.  That means a lot to us. We don't have investors. We don't have owners. We don't have profits in the usual sense of the word. So every dollar we have — and every dollar that comes in — is put right to work for YOU. Our journalists and staff transform your support into news, programming, and ultimately, better-informed people – who are challenged and invigorated by a deeper understanding of events, ideas, and cultures.     Of course, this "public" thing works two ways. And you are the not-so-secret ingredient to public media's success when you show your support with a donation. Regardless of what you may have heard recently, on average, less than 1% of NPR's annual operating budget comes in the form of grants from CPB and federal agencies and departments. Across the NPR Network, donations from people like you are an essential funding source. Your support is critical.  Please celebrate the first-ever Public Media Giving Days by donating now. It takes just a few minutes and makes a big impact. Your Favorite Station Donate Now Select a different station If you’re already a supporter — please give an additional gift on this special day. Or, maybe you’re thinking for the first time about how community funding keeps public media as community focused as it can be, back up that thought with action and give now. Thank you!  Adrienne Brown VP, Development Operations P.S. When you share on social media that you support public media, it increases the chance that folks on the fence about supporting will make a donation, too. Use the hashtag #PublicMediaGives. We'll be keeping an eye out for your posts and stories to share. Thanks! You received this message because you're subscribed to Health emails.
