Here is the complete schedule of the December Membership Awareness Week, the second or third 1974 membership campaign conducted by PBS affiliate KPBS-TV in San Diego, CA for Friday December 6, 1974 through Sunday December 15, 1974!! 📺 💵
So I don't know if KPBS had another membership pledge campaign in 1973 before the Public Television Awareness Week 1974, because on May 20 through May 24, 1974 the station conducted its very first Auction!!
If anybody knows about this, let me know in the comments please!!
NOTE: Some of the special programs will include KPBS membership breaks where they will be asking for membership support by calling: (714) 583-2120, Memberships start at $15, although any amount is welcomed. With this minimum membership, the individual is sent the monthly "KPBS Guide" which previews upcoming programs through articles and listings. With a $30 membership, a person is entitled to receive special book premiums and for a $50 membership, members will recieve both of the book premiums, and it goes for a $75 membership, and to all the way to a $100 membership to KPBS, All contributions are tax-deductible and Mastercharge or Bankamericard are accepted.
