Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits to being a member?
Membership does have its privileges. You get:
- A digital version of our quarterly program guide,
- the chance to complete the KVÂ鶹ÊÓƵ Survey,
- music / program look-up service,
- a thank you gift of your choice, based on your giving levels,
- notification of and invitations to upcoming KVÂ鶹ÊÓƵ events – (opera trips, member parties, etc.),
- and of course the satisfaction of knowing that you’re keeping KVÂ鶹ÊÓƵ and the programs you love on the air.
Where does my gift go?
Your contribution goes to programming and general operations. Many of the NPR and PRI programs cost thousands of dollars and your gift allows us to keep these wonderful programs. We couldn’t do it without you.
When will my thank you gift arrive?
Please allow 4 weeks, after your pledge has been paid, for gifts to arrive. If it’s been longer than that, please contact our offices.
Does KVÂ鶹ÊÓƵ exchange my information?
NO! However, we are required to report all gifts to Â鶹ÊÓƵ, so your name is given to the University Advancement department. Remember, we are licensed to Â鶹ÊÓƵ.
Why does my credit card receipt say Â鶹ÊÓƵ?
KVÂ鶹ÊÓƵ is licensed to and located on the campus of Â鶹ÊÓƵ in Beaumont. All monies go through the Â鶹ÊÓƵ cashiers office and are then credited to KVÂ鶹ÊÓƵ. Rest assured that your gift DOES go to KVÂ鶹ÊÓƵ.
Is my contribution tax deductible?
Contributions to KVÂ鶹ÊÓƵ are tax deductible to the full extent of the law, except for the fair market value of any thank-you gifts received.
When will my membership be due for renewal?
Your membership expiration date is printed on most correspondence above your mailing address. We’ll send you renewal notices starting 30-60 days before that time. If you have any questions, please contact us.
