Featured Project
My Source
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) has developed the Public Awareness Initiative (PAI) to increase recognition of public broadcasting as a valuable resource. Through PAI, and its My Source outreach campaign, public broadcasting supporters are able to tell their own stories about how public broadcasting serves as a source for information, entertainment and empowerment for them and their communities.
The National Minority Consortia (NMC) have partnered to produce testimonials to tell the story of impact from the viewpoint of ethnically and culturally diverse audiences.
About the National Minority Consortia (NMC)
The NMC has emerged as a leader in the field of independent filmmaking and more recently in digital media. We fund film and media makers, present works on public television and other venues, exhibit films and videos, and distribute works to schools and libraries. In addition, we facilitate a new media institute, production training, skills advancement, and career development through workshops, lectures and counseling. With primary funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the NMC serves as an important component of American public television.
