Idaho Public Television is proud to provide the best in programming from Idaho and around the world. As the Gem State's only PBS affiliate, IdahoPTV provides quality music, drama and comedy and prides itself on its balanced coverage, commentary and analysis of public affairs.

Idaho Public Television exists to serve its viewers, not to profit from them. However, there is a cost for the statewide programs and other services we deliver. Please join the more than 21,000 donors who currently support our mission to educate, inform and inspire.

Your tax-deductible, year-end contribution during this season of giving is vital to IdahoPTV's ongoing effort to maintain our high standards of programs and services. As we close out another year and look forward to 2012, please consider your Friends of Idaho Public Television contribution today and help IdahoPTV maintain the best programming possible throughout the coming year. Your support allows IdahoPTV to broadcast:

• Award-winning national programming and locally produced shows that uplift and inspire and engage the mind — programs such as Masterpiece Theatre, Great Performances and Outdoor Idaho.
• Exceptional children's programs that provide a safe educational tool for our young viewers, teaching them to share, read and explore the world — programs like Clifford the Big Red Dog, Sesame Street and SuperWHY!
• Provocative and probing programs that explore the mysteries of science, the world in which we live, and the universe beyond — shows such as Nature, NOVA, Dialogue and D4K.

We hope that you enjoy the programs and services that Idaho Public Television provides; that is why we are asking for your support today. You count on us to bring quality television into homes and communities throughout Idaho — programming that delivers access to the finest concerts, explores faraway places, and stirs lively discussion on the news and events that shape our world.

We leave no stone unturned when it comes to funding our mission — writing foundations, making telephone calls, sending letters, using the Internet — still 65 percent of our total budget comes from generous members like you … one contribution at a time.

Thanks again for your generosity as a Friend of Idaho Public Television. You are a terrific partner!
