DescriptionWGBH Boston has undertaken a wide range of activities that have led to its steady growth through the years as one of America's preeminent public media institutions. From its roots as a local public TV and radio station, WGBH grew to become PBS's single largest producer of content for television (prime-time and children's series) and the Web, as well as a major supplier of programs heard nationally on public radio and a pioneer in educational multimedia and in media access services for audiences with hearing or vision loss.In complex, uncertain times like these, the role WGBH and public media play is more important than ever: providing trusted, in-depth information and thoughtful perspective that empower citizens and families. WGBH is embracing these challenges--with significantly expanded independent news and analysis, both locally and nationally, that tackle the big questions; with children's content that builds literacy, science, engineering, and math skills from pre-kindergarten through high school; with an ambitious new Web-based initiative that delivers trusted information on all things science. At the same time, we are transforming WGBH into a digital educational media powerhouse that welcomes both loyal and new audiences to experience and share our content at their convenience through our expanding digital and on-demand services.Description

In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts describing the nature of the affiliation, and indicating whether he or she has or may have a conflict of interest involving any financial transaction of WGBH. In the event there is a change in the information submitted in the disclosure statement, the person submitting it is to promptly submit written notification of the change. At the conclusion of the fiscal year, prior to the submission of the Form 990, a governing body member is required to disclose any conflicts of interest that may have existed during the prior fiscal year using the provided questionnaire.

Form 990, Part III, Line 2Form 990, Part III, Line 2: New ServicesWGBH acquired the Minnesota-based public radio accomplished content producer and distributor PRI, Public Radio International, and our longtime co-producer on The World. We're thrilled to team up with PRI to foster fresh voices and grow the range and diversity of programs for stations around the country. This new partnership will allow us to increase the impact of public media across all platforms in even more creative ways.With five regional television services, three radio services and multiple online channels, WGBH is New England's leading public broadcaster. Every month, millions of people turn to us for programs that reflect the interests and issues that matter to our region. But we're determined to do more. We're increasing our production of local content across platforms, including our newly combined television/radio/online/ public media news service. And we're expanding our geographic community. This year, we formed a relationship with New Hampshire Public Television that strengthens our respective television services while capitalizing on economies of scale around operations and fundraising.WGBH has a long history of creating educational media for classrooms nationwide. Today, we're giving teachers, students, and families the curriculum-based, media-rich content they need to galvanize learning. In partnership with PBS, we launched PBS LearningMedia(TM), a free educational online service (which builds on our groundbreaking Teachers' Domain) that public television stations in 42 states now are offering to educators. We're also the Commonwealth's digital media partner on two ambitious federal Race to the Top initiatives that are reshaping learning for the 21st century.

Client Note 1 - Form 990, Part I Line 19 Revenue Less ExpensesThe Foundation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 116 in 1996. Revenue received pertaining to multi-year grants is recognized as temporarily restricted revenue in the year the grant is received and is included in the total revenue of the Foundation for that year. However, expenses on grants, including multi-year grants are recognized in the year the funds are actually spent and are included in the total expenses of the Foundation for that year. As a result, the difference in timing between the receipt of grant revenues and the expenditure of grant funds causes significant year-to-year fluctuations in the Revenue less expenses amount on Form 990, Part I, Line 19, as evidenced by the schedule below:Year Revenue less expenses2011 (28,219,541)2010 11,082,6482009 (45,877,702)2008 (18,293,464)2007 54,737,0242006 1,478,877
