The Elizabeth P. Campbell Legacy Society

Named for WETA founder Elizabeth P. Campbell, the Legacy Society recognizes those individuals whose generosity through a will, trust, retirement account, charitable gift annuity, or other financial plan will help ensure WETA programs and services will be available for audiences in years to come.


Educator, activist and a trailblazer for public education, Elizabeth Pfohl Campbell helped establish WETA in 1961 as one of the region's most valued and essential institutions. She guided WETA for more than 40 years. Through her bequest, Mrs. Campbell lay the foundation to ensure that WETA will always be an integral part of the educational and cultural life of Greater Washington and the nation.


If you have made a gift to WETA through your will, trust, or retirement plan or other financial instrument, please complete our Legacy Society Recognition form so we can thank you today and welcome you into the Legacy Society.
