PBS Auction Sponsorship
From San Diego to Portland, Maine, approximately 60 PBS stations hold televised and/or online auctions, reaching 75 million TV households across the country.
For bidders, auctions provide excitement, a chance for a deal, and a means to support their local public television station.
For donors, auctions offer a unique marketing opportunity. Donors are able to reach, with little cost, an audience that has above average levels of education, income and affinity to the businesses and corporations that support public television.
To learn more about how you can benefit from a partnership with the best in PBS Product Sponsorship, please email Bonnie Lambert or call (703) 739-5119. You can also get a copy of the PBS Product Sponsorship Media Kit.
The 2007-2008 auction calendar for participating PBS stations is as follows:
