Request for Proposals
CPB has created the Economy Response Grant program in response to the widespread economic downturn, and is open to all CPB-qualified public radio and television stations. The program seeks to support stations' efforts to help their communities through initiatives that establish collaboration with community partners and that raise awareness of the impact the current economic crisis is having on the station's community.
Project deliverables must be created in response to the needs of the community and will include on-air content, new media and outreach materials, and evidence of significant community partnerships and community involvement. CPB will fund matching grants of up to $100,000 per qualifying station, with a total investment of up to $1 million.
