Public radio fills a void in that it offers great family programs in order to deepen curiosity and encourage further exploration and personal growth.
The following pages will offer ideas as to how you can be a part, truly a partner, in the shaping, developing and encouragement of that type of broadcasting content through your gifts and support of WAMU. Your rewards will be more than quality programs and more than the tax savings that are a result of your gift. You will also experience the personal and emotional rewards of helping to insure the future of quality public broadcasting.
There are as many different ways to support WAMU as there are needs for your support. If you are new to planned giving, you might want to look at How Can I...?, a summary page that will help you with an overview of many of the common planned giving opportunities.
These giving opportunities share some of the different ways people can become partners with us in providing quality programming. Take a moment to see how people - perhaps in circumstances similar to yours - have found ways to support their charities and in turn enriched their hearts and provided needed support to others. Just click on the links below.
We are currently prioritizing some of our needs so that we may present a list for your information. When completed, it will be available on our wish list.
If you have already included WAMU in your estate plans, please let us know by calling us or filling out our estate intention form. We would enjoy the opportunity to thank you and would like to make sure your intentions are carried out properly. We would also like to invite you to join the WAMU 1961 Society and the Helen Palmer Kettler Society. If you have not written a will yet, regardless of your charitable intent, please consider this.
As there are different methods to utilize in planned giving, your personal circumstances will determine what is the best structure for you to support WAMU. We will be glad to answer questions, review your unique circumstances and offer suggestions confidentially. Please call or e-mail us. Also, you may use our request for information form.
