SUPPORTERS
CCTV's Center for Media & Democracy gratefully depends on various sources of support including:
Cable Subscribers - Comcast and Burlington Telecom cable subscribers pay 2.1% of their monthly cable bill to support Channel 17 programming and operations. These funds are managed by the Channel 17 Trustees, who contract with CCTV to operate the channel.
Our Members - Nonprofit and individual members join as members in support of free speech, public access and open networks. We have 50 nonprofit members.
Our Customers - Activists, nonprofit organizations and public agencies purchase services from CCTV. They pay discounted rates for professional and affordable production and technical support services.
Private Foundations & Donors - Capacity building work with Vermont's nonprofit community (training, communications planning and technical services) are underwritten by longstanding supporters: foundations and individual donors. The Surdna Foundation, the A.D. Henderson Foundation, and IBM Community Affairs. In 2008, we received funding from new supporters: the Chittenden Bank, the Vermont Community Foundation and the Media & Democracy Fund.
Federal Grants - Media Works for YOUth is largely paid for through a earmark procured with the help of U.S. Department of JusticeSenator Patrick Leahy. MWY is also supported by modest contributions from local donors.
Thank You all so very much!
