The National Estate Planning Awareness Campaign was designed to help raise awareness about the importance of having a proper estate plan. The campaign helped PBS Member Stations discover new donors who reported over 14 million dollars in planned gifts this year!

Most of the recipients who received special achievement awards in the 2016 campaign also attended DevDay in San Diego this year.

PBS Development Services decided to honor these stations by acknowledging them prior to our morning session at DevDay. In addition to presenting the awards to those special achievers in a room full of their peers, we also announced the launch of our NEPAC2017 Campaign which has already reached 38 participants to date!
