CET, Cincinnati | Major Gifts: Planned Giving


	Larry Shields grew up watching and learning from all of the wonderful educational programs on CET which had a positive impact on him and his family. During college at Ohio University, Larry volunteered and then worked at the PBS station WOUB during his senior year. Today, he is a photojournalist for one of the Greater Cincinnati Television stations. In order for future generations to enjoy the valuable resource CET is to our community, Larry's parents Marsha and John Shields have remembered CET in their estate plans.
