Our impact story is a reminder that PBS North Carolina is made for and by you, our neighbors. Here’s a snapshot of what your support made possible last year: • 72 community events, initiatives, trainings and presentations impacting over 127,664 people, including children, parents, caregivers and educators. • Teachers, caregivers and learners from 81 counties engaged with our educational resources and services. • More than 700 teachers participated in professional development sessions, potentially impacting more than 10,000 learners in their classrooms. • Our tower network provided infrastructure utilized by over 40 federal, state and local jurisdictions for emergency communications. • 3,255 hours of local programs showcasing North Carolina’s people, places and stories were produced. When you support PBS North Carolina, you’re investing in your community and amplifying the diverse and vibrant cultures that make it home. Thank you for investing in a brighter future for all.

Here’s what one of them has to say: “SECU Foundation is proud to support PBS North Carolina’s Year of the Trail series. Our state is home to miles of beautiful trails, greenways and recreation areas.
