APTV – ALABAMA PUBLIC TELEVISION – covers the broadcasting and distribution costs for Steve Trash Science , but they do not provide any production funding. Our production funding (paying a professional crew, studio rental, editing, video and photo licenses, paying science teachers to write episodes) is completely covered by our MAJOR FUNDERS… people like you!
If you’d like to support great kids programming AND get a 100% tax deduction, please consider supporting this amazing show!
Cool right?
A tax deductible donation of $15K can underwrite the cost of ONE ENTIRE EPISODE – of Steve Trash Science!
Please help us grow tomorrow’s problem solvers out of today’s kids.
There are currently three levels of – STEVE TRASH SCIENCE – on PBS and Alabama Public Television production underwriting.
At each level of underwriting we will be broadcast on Alabama Public Television, on its app, Roku, Chromecast, and Apple TV, once we’ve completed the production process (fund, write, shoot, edit, approval by education partners) and through our partners at NETA (we can be distributed to PBS affiliates across the country).
PLATINUM – 150K = one entire season (10 episodes x 26:47 each) and we begin production immediately. You are our sole underwriter for season two.
GOLD – 75K = underwriting half the season (five episodes x 26:47). We will continue to seek out grants and funding to fully finance season two. But we WILL begin production immediately.
SILVER – 15K = underwriting one episode (26:47). We begin production once we are fully funded. We have many partners working to reach full funding. AUM (Auburn University at Montgomery) is applying for multi-year grants that will fund us for several years, and will allow us to create even MORE online resources than are currently available. Keep Alabama Beautiful has committed to underwriting for season two. We are currently working with our partners from season one; NRCS, Lyons HR, Alabama Soil and Water Conservation, Northwest Alabama RC&D, to support season two as well. Things are looking good!
We have recently partnered with AUM to create interactive content for after school programs, and out of school learning (this is particularly focused on 21CCLC after school programs) based on the STEVE TRASH SCIENCE show.
Steve Trash Science is currently seen on the national PBS website and broadcast by PBS affiliates across the country.
