Planning Your PhilanthropyMajor and Planned Gifts:Many donors have the interest and financial capacity to make a major gift to NCPR. Our generous friends have made major gifts to start off a new outreach or service effort like our on-line service or to provide permanent endowment funding to ensure a stable financial future.

Martha Foley, News Director Ive listened to North Country Public Radio for over 30 years, and worked here for over 20. Its been an honor to have had a role in making this regional service as broad and strong as its become. Together, we have built an abiding connection to this region and each other. We hope youll include NCPR in your estate planyour gift will keep your station strong long past my time as News Director. You can make a real difference for our future. Todd Moe, The 8 OClock Hour co-host and cultural reporter One of the questions I often ask during interviews is: What does this idea, object or event say about life in the North Country? My job in covering art and culture is to use this medium to engage artists in conversations that listeners find relevant. Listening to The 8 OClock Hour connects you with colorful North Country residents, or events in the region. Maybe its just a quick morning conversation about snow, food, gardening, music or the season. Joy? Fun? You betcha! And its your support that makes it all possibletoday and into the coming decades. Thanks. |
