Frequently Asked Questions

All donations are used to support the mission of Nebraska Public Media. Learn more in our annual report.

Contributions to the Nebraska Public Media Foundation are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. The relevant law states “to the extent that tangible personal benefits are not received in return.” This means that if you receive a thank you gift for your contribution, you cannot claim the fair market value of the thank you gift for tax purposes. Your allowable deduction would be the amount of your contribution minus the fair market value of your thank you gift. If you have further questions concerning the tax deductibility of any of your contributions, please consult your tax advisor.

If you have questions about your donation, please call our Customer Service at 800.634.6788.

Nebraska Public Media operates as one organization. By having a single membership, communications are streamlined, efficiency increases and administrative costs lessen.

Nebraska Public Media will send renewal reminders beginning about three months before your membership lapses. Consider becoming a Nebraska Public Media Sustaining Star to contribute monthly ongoing support to ensure your membership never lapses while supporting the programs you enjoy on Nebraska Public Media.
