"I had an old investment, which would have generated a substantial
tax liability if sold. By establishing a gift annuity I was able to
support WPBT and increase my income without paying a large immediate
capital gains tax." |

Channel 2 is South Florida’s only community-owned
public television station. With audiences reaching from Vero Beach
to Key West and throughout the Caribbean, Channel 2 brings the
best that television has to offer into nearly one million homes
every week.
Now a legacy of artistic acclaim and educational excellence, Channel
2 provides a safe place for children to learn and grow, ground-breaking
documentaries and unparalleled dramatic and performing arts programs.
Channel 2’s dedication to the community is greater than ever
now, as the station continues the mission it began fi fty years ago
- to make a difference in people’s lives.
To assure the future of WPBT, please consider a gift to establish
a Charitable Gift Annuity that will benefit you, your family, and
future generations of WPBT viewers.
One of the Charitable Gift Annuity’s
best features is its simplicity. Gift Annuities are contracts between
WPBT and the donor featuring:
- Payments for life
- A substantial charitable tax
deduction
- Avoidance of immediate capital gains tax
- No fees to
establish the annuity
- Membership in the
James I. Keller Society which recognizes donors who have remembered
WPBT in their estate plans.
