Steven Alexopoulos “I appreciate that WHYY is commercial free and that it benefits the community with its objective reporting. The diversity of content is excellent. When I turn WHYY on, from PBS NewsHour or The New Yorker Radio Hour, I’m always surprised by the topic and learn something new. I like that it’s always a different point of view. To be honest, I’d feel guilty if I didn’t offer a contribution. I want to support things that matter, that are based on my values. Public radio is like an anchor. It’s reliable and I know I’ll get quality programming every time I turn it on.

Managing finances in a tax efficient way is important to most people and to that end a charitable gift annuity was a great way for me to champion a worthy cause and realize certain tax advantages at the same time. WHYY and I both benefit and I think it makes a significant impact.”
