want to thank you for the support you’ve givenPBS39 in 2014. We’ve had many accomplish-ments this year which simply couldn’t not havebeen achieved without you and other valuedmembers. Together, we: • Brought the Greater Lehigh Valley a number

of compelling new programs including Superfoods with Chef Walter Staib and Science Time • Kicked off the second season of our 4-time

Emmy nominated local news and arts show,FOCUS.• Continued to bring quality and award-

winning programming to our community thatyou’ve come to know, trust, and expect from us,such as Ken Burns’ The Roosevelts and AfricanAmericans: Many Rivers to Cross (just to namea few!) • Partnered with 33 school districts

throughout our region and strengthened art,math, science, and English education for over110,000 public school students.

We know you understand how important public television is, but it is equally important that you understand how important YOU are to the futureof public television.

As 2014 comes to an end, I hope that you willtake the time and help us keep this momentumgoing in the new year. Your special year-end giftof any amount tells us that you appreciate allthat PBS39 delivers and will help us enter 2015on solid ground.
