California state budget cuts have greatly impacted the college district.  Under-enrolled classes have been canceled, Student Services discontinued and the district has been forced to eliminate all financial support of their ancillary services, like KCSM-TV.

We have responded by drastically reducing our staff and slashing expenses. We have found incredible sources of fascinating new (and affordable!) programming. We must, however, raise additional revenue  to be able to continue to provide great non-commercial educational programming to the Bay Area.

We need your help more than ever. We need to raise one million dollars from our viewers by January 1st.  If you want to keep KCSM’s commercial free, educational services here in the Bay Area, please show your support by donating whatever you can at www.kcsm.org/savetv

With your support, we can continue to educate thousands of students through our distance learning programs, and air thought-provoking and mind-changing shows. We can continue to make a difference in the education of our community – but we need your support now!

Pass the word on to family, friends and businesses (large and small) and please offer your comments and suggestions on our tv forum.
