If PBS is a big part of your life, consider leaving the station a bequest to create a lasting legacy for your love of music. Since 1979, community broadcaster PBS has been an integral player in Melbourne's diverse music community – with more than 80 specialist music programs ranging from soul to garage to country to jazz – PBS is dedicated to nurturing, inspiring and championing Melbourne's diverse music community.
We bring together people of passion – on air and behind the scenes – so Melbourne can continue to thrive as Australia's undisputed music capital.
We introduce children to the joy of good music through our Rock-A-Bye Baby events, train at-risk and marginalised youth, manage an extensive library and archive of live recordings, run programs to develop great musicianship, lobby to protect and promote the music industry and community broadcasting sector and much, much more.
Making a bequest in your will is one of the easiest ways to make significant future gifts to the individuals and charities that matter most to you.
If you would like to find out more, email the PBS General Manager on or call the station on (+61 3) 8415 1067.
