"TVSB has a long history of supporting local non-profit organizations and giving voice to the community," said Erik Davis, Executive Director of TV Santa Barbara. "This year, we want to expand our impact through a more formalized and publicized Give Forward program with a focus on equity, inclusion and diversity."

Applications for TVSB's Give Forward program are now being accepted on the TVSB website at http://www.tvsb.tv/giveforward through Friday, April 30, 2021. The community is invited to apply for full or discounted media services. Applicants must live or do business in Santa Barbara County to qualify for the Give Forward Program. Preference will be given to productions that can be aired on community access television, channels 17 and 71. Additional preference will be given to those who are underrepresented in traditional media.

"One of TV Santa Barbara's guiding principles is community building," said Davis. "By providing media resources and a television platform, individuals and organizations are able to share their stories and expand their impact within Santa Barbara, building a stronger community for all."

Last year, TVSB helped produce 805 Inspires!, a video production collaboration with the County Office of Arts. The 15-minute family-friendly videos helped local museums, gardens and cultural institutions share their stories and connect with broader audience through video. Throughout the pandemic, TVSB also helped local festivals transition to televised and virtual events while also supporting our local schools in the time of virtual graduations. And, over 200 non-profit organizations were featured in community access television programming.
