A note from KERA’s President & CEO:

In a rapidly growing region, and in a moment of industry and technological change — North Texans need KERA's services more than ever before.

Which means, KERA needs you.

I invite you to join us in this transformational step forward. KERA’s Ground Breaking Capital Campaign will ensure KERA’s essential services are not only accessible for decades to come, but also that they are exceptional, relevant and extraordinary.

Your generosity in this pivotal moment does so much more than impact this legendary organization — it will transform and better the lives of generations of North Texans.

It’s a bold step forward — and we’re so honored to take it with you. Thank you for your groundbreaking support.

Be well,

NICO LEONE
President & CEO, KERA

KERA is a blessing that keeps me connected to the rest of
the world and my local city in a unique way.
