John,

I wanted to reach out and personally express my gratitude to you this holiday season. Through the highs and lows of 2022, your steadfast support has kept us going. You’ve helped us to nurture existing community relationships and forge new connections with members of our diverse region.

You help us change lives for the better through the power of shared knowledge. Our independent journalists deliver critical news and coverage of current events – from world championships, to elections to droughts. And through it all we make sure to uplift voices in our own community and share the stories that matter. We provide you with fact-based news coverage and a wide range of inspiring and educational programming.

As we look ahead to 2023, we’re grateful and fortunate to serve you and Northern California at large. Thank you for trusting KQED as your local public media station.

On behalf of everyone at KQED, I wish you and your loved ones a relaxing and joyful holiday season.

Happy holidays!

P.S. If you’re excited to support KQED in 2023, don’t wait – you can make a special tax-deductible gift today.
