The RCTV Sponsorship provides local businesses, organizations, and community partners with an opportunity to support community media while gaining visibility among residents. Sponsorships help fund programming, equipment upgrades, training workshops, and youth media.
As a nonprofit community media organization, RCTV follows FCC guidelines for underwriting: No comparative, qualitative, or promotional language (e.g., “best,” “cheapest”). May include business name, logo, slogan, location, contact information, and value-neutral descriptions of products/services—no call to action. Acknowledgments are designed to inform, not advertise.
