2 GENERAL MANAGER S NOTE Dear Friends, On behalf of the staff at KBTC, I hope that you and yours are ready for the holiday season! With so many non-profit organizations vying for your attention and your donation - we want to thank you for supporting KBTC. And while KBTC is part of the Public Broadcasting System, a national network of television stations, every dollar of your donation is put to work locally, right here in Western Washington to fund the initiatives and programs that we have committed to on your behalf. So it is very true to say that all that KBTC does is because of you, and as our partner, we hope you know the reach of your donation and how we are putting your dollars to work: As a public media station, we take our commitment to broadcasting a few steps further by not only airing your favorite PBS favorites, but by also providing our region with international programming from NHK Japan and MHz World View in addition to boosting TVW, Washington state s public affairs channel. As a content creator, we explore human stories featuring local artists, educators, historians, performers, scientists, soldiers, students, and others. As educators, we provide a safe media environment on television and online, while creating and facilitating annual camps and monthly classes using PBS award-winning content as curriculum. And, as conveners, we bring people together to celebrate the things that matter to our community heritage, service, the arts, science and more. Thank you for your part in the work we do for this community! We quite literally couldn t do any of it without you.
