A Message from Arden Robbins

Dear Friends of WEDU PBS,

As we gear up for another month of amazing programming and community engagement, we can't help but take a moment to express our gratitude for the invaluable support we receive from our corporate and nonprofit community partners. Because of their devoted support, WEDU PBS continues to serve as a beacon of education, enlighten-

ment, and entertainment for our community.

It's important to recognize the significant role our community partners play in our station's success. Beyond their financial contributions, they serve as pillars of support, enabling us to fulfill our mission of providing high-quality programming and impactful community engagement.

Thanks to the generous backing of our partners, we can share unique local stories and support local events that serve as vital platforms for connection and dialogue within our community. Perhaps most importantly, our partners enable us to make a difference in the lives of children. Because of last month’s Be My Neighbor Day event sponsors, we were able to offer educational opportunities to empower young minds and inspire future generations.

As WEDU supporters, we know you appreciate the invaluable contributions of our strong and loyal corporate partners. Their dedication is instrumental in our collective efforts to serve West Central Florida.

Many large and small businesses support WEDU by underwriting the cost of important local and national programs and outreach events. The unique benefits our partners receive help them raise their brand's value over standard commercial broadcast or cable TV networks.

To learn more about becoming an underwriter or sponsor, please email me directly at arobbins@wedu.org.
