With the CPB shutting down, many are wondering: 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐊𝐕𝐂𝐑?

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫: We’re not going anywhere. KVCR is proud to continue serving the Inland Empire as your local PBS and NPR station, committed to uplifting the diverse voices of our region.💙

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫: The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) has long provided critical federal funding that supports public media including PBS, NPR, and local stations like ours. While the CPB’s shutdown is a momentous loss, PBS has pledged to carry forward its legacy and continue serving communities like ours with trusted content and vital services.

𝐒𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥, and it means KVCR is depending more than ever on you. Your support ensures public media remains accessible, reliable, and strong in the Inland Empire.

📺 Federal funding kept KVCR free for the Inland Empire. Now, that lifeline is gone.

🎙️ When Congress voted to eliminate public media funding, it put trusted news, emergency alerts, and educational children’s shows at risk — especially for those who need them most.

💡 This is a pivotal moment. Let’s stand together to protect a resource that’s served our community for over 70 years.

The moment is now. Give today. Support tomorrow. 💙

We spoke with local astronomer Tom Varden to get the scoop on when, where, and how to see the show — even if you can’t leave the city.

Riverside County Animal Shelter stayed open until midnight and waived adoption fees — giving pups like Fernanda a second chance. From Instagram posts to fur-ever homes, people showed up, even late at night, to rescue animals on the brink. 💙
