Support PBS Reno on GivingTuesday!
GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of people and 
organizations to transform their communities and the world

 

RENO, NV (November 28, 2023) — The global generosity movement GivingTuesday was established in 2012 as a day for everyone to do something good in their community; from acts of kindness to financial support of nonprofits. In 2022, 37 million adults in the U.S. participated in GivingTuesday in some way, a 6% increase from 2021, contributing much-needed and critical support to causes, communities, and nonprofit organizations as they kick off the giving season this year in the face of substantial economic challenges and continued volatility.  

On this GivingTuesday, November 28, 2023, PBS Reno invites you to support its educational services, free online services, and local award-earning productions by making a donation in any amount. Call 775.600.0550, go to pbsreno.org or use your smartphone to scan this QR code:
