Why Does Year-End Giving Matter So Much?

Dear Friend, 

As we approach the end of what has been a transformative year for PBS News, I wanted to reach out personally. 

2025 has tested us in ways we never imagined. The elimination of federal funding created uncertainty about our future and forced us to make some difficult decisions. But it also revealed something powerful: the unwavering commitment of people like you who believe in journalism with integrity

As we enter these final days of the year, I'm reaching out with an extraordinary opportunity. Thanks to the generosity of The Steel Family Fund, your tax-deductible year-end gift by midnight December 31 will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $50,000. Your gift today will have double the impact – and when you start a monthly contribution, your gifts will be matched for an entire year. 

Why does year-end giving matter so much? Because it allows us to enter 2026 with the resources we need to: 

 

  • Deliver the trustworthy, fact-based journalism you deserve 
     
  • Provide the in-depth analysis that goes beyond the headlines 
     
  • Send reporters into communities across America to tell stories that would otherwise go untold 
     
  • Remain free and accessible to all 
     

In a world where trust in media continues to decline, these values matter more than ever. 

Your monthly support isn't just a donation—it's an investment in democracy itself. It's a statement that fair, independent, and trusted journalism is worth protecting. 
Will you make your year-end gift today and have it doubled? 

[YES, I'LL GIVE NOW - MY GIFT WILL BE MATCHED 2X]

Thank you for being part of our community and for standing with us during this pivotal moment. 

With gratitude, 



Michael Rancilio,

EVP and General Manager
PBS News 


P.S. The most powerful way to support PBS News right now is as a monthly donor, and your gift will be 2X matched for an entire year. There's no better time to invest in trusted journalism.
