Dear Friends and Supporters,
PCTV is proud to enter its 24th year in Pleasantville. Our mission, providing the community with free access to a professional television station is alive and well. Involving local residents in the programming and operation of the station increases avenues of communication, access to educational content, information on local government, cultural events and community activities. With over 3,200 programs available online at PCTV76.org, we have become the video archive for Pleasantville and an opportunity for self expression.
PCTV is always looking for new ways to engage the community. This year, we’ve added a number of new series including The Young Directors Series in partnership with Pace University’s Film Department, a restaurant show Pleasantville EATS, and The More You Know which updates residents on local events and issues. We also introduced a successful summer camp for students 3rd – 6th grade. Along with our Board of Directors, I would like to encourage you to join our team in creating a show, filming an event or even just taking a studio tour. Please contact me at PCTV@PCTV76.org or at (914) 409-3487. PCTV is here to give you a voice!
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has supported PCTV throughout the years. Whether you’ve attended our fundraisers, generously donated to our silent auctions, produced shows, volunteered, became a sponsor, or utilized our professional services, you have been instrumental in our success. Over 400 individuals and organizations have played a vital role in our journey. Annually, half our budget is sustained through donations and commercial work, allowing us to keep the doors open and offering free public access for our residents. We hope that you will continue to support our good work and consider PCTV in your giving plans this year.
As the holiday season is upon us, we would like to wish you joyous moments with your friends and family and above all, we hope you remain safe and heathy!
