Why Sponsor Nine PBS?

Reach a meaningful audience. Nine PBS reaches 70% of residents across 100 counties in Missouri and Illinois, with more than 300,000 people tuning in each week. Our viewers are engaged, loyal, and more likely to support organizations that support public media.

Stand out in a trusted space. Your message appears in an uncluttered, noncommercial environment where it’s noticed—and where your support enhances your brand image.

Connect with shared values. Community, trust, equity, and learning guide everything we do. When you sponsor Nine PBS, you align your organization with values that matter deeply to our region.

Get personalized service. We work with you to create sponsorships that meet your goals and reflect your voice.

Public Media with a Purpose

Unlike commercial media, Nine PBS exists to serve the public good. For more than 70 years, we’ve been a trusted storyteller and partner for the St. Louis region, serving 31 counties with a singular purpose: to deepen understanding and help our community flourish.

From children’s programming that sparks curiosity, to documentaries that open new perspectives, to trusted news and arts programming, PBS content informs, inspires, and connects us all.

We’re proud to represent St. Louis as leaders in public media—locally and across the country.
