A Steadfast Friend By necessity, many of us are staying at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. This allows time for reflection and for doing things we’ve put off. We are grateful to the individuals who realize that now, more than ever, a legacy to UNC-TV benefits our entire state by bringing education home for students, emergency communications for NC and, of course, entertaining escapes for you. During this time, friends from Mt. Holly to Greensboro and Nantahala to the Outer Banks connected with us to add UNC-TV to their estate plan.

For more information regarding a legacy gift in support UNC-TV, please visit unctvgift.org, email giftplanning@unctv.org, or call 877-485-3200.

We Are Here for You! UNC-TV is here for you. We are here for North Carolina.

We serve the greater good day in and day out—over the air and online—even when disaster strikes. Friends like you make it possible for UNC-TV to bring local communities together—despite the many disruptions to daily life. Won’t you be here for us?

We’re adapting and strengthening our public services. We are built for this moment and we’ll persevere because, ultimately, our work is about caring for each other. Here’s how you can help. When you see this envelope in your mailbox, please respond with your gift by mail or contribute securely online at unctv.org/urgent.

Your special donation helps to sustain UNC-TV in the coming weeks as we redouble our efforts to sustain you in these extraordinary times.

With so many members currently unable to support us now as they’d like to, your gift of any size will make more of an impact than ever.

Thank you being such an important part of our UNC-TV family!
