The campaign to Build a New Home for KPTZ achieved a major milestone this past week. We have met the Sage Foundation Match challenge to receive a $500,000 grant, resulting in $750,000 to build our new home at Fort Worden!
This awesome challenge inspired generous donations from over 250 station supporters like you, including an extraordinary gift to jump-start the campaign from a valued KPTZ personality.
Achieving this staggering $250,000 goal came together in less than 6 months, a true success story that will energize KPTZ’s entire capital campaign. Our determined, much-needed plan is to move into state-of-the-art studios at Fort Worden and to develop a dedicated Emergency Broadcast studio in order to serve our widespread community. Certainly it’s ambitious, as was accepting the grant challenge from Sage Foundation.
We are on track to coordinate with Fort Worden’s Makers Square construction plans. And now with the Sage Match momentum, all systems are GO!
KPTZ continues to welcome donations to help us raise the additional $150,000 needed to fully fund the KPTZ 2.0 budget.
