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, up-to-the-minute 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

Form 990, Part VI, Line 19Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly AvailableThe Organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available to the public upon request.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 15bForm 990, Part VI, Line 15b: Compensation Review and Approval Process for Officers and Key EmployeesSee explanation for Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a above.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 12cForm 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of ConflictsThe organization maintains a written conflict of interest policy which is updated and disseminated to all employees and trustees annually. The Chief Financial Officer of the organization requires that each key employee, officer and trustee complete a conflict of interest disclosure form annually. 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 VI, Line 11Form 990, Part VI, Line 11: Form 990 Review ProcessThe Form 990 was prepared by the organization's management and reviewed in detail by tax advisors from a national accounting firm. The Chief Financial Officer reviewed Form 990 prior to it being presented to the audit committee. The audit committee reviewed the form 990 and approved for submission to the Internal Revenue Service. Prior to the final form being electronically submitted to the Internal Revenue Service, a copy was provided to all members of the board of trustees.
Form 990, Part III, Line 2Form 990, Part III, Line 2: New ServicesWGBH's Teachers' Domain--our acclaimed online library of multimedia resources for classrooms--joined forces with PBS's educational online efforts to launch PBS Learning Media(trademark) for the 2011-2012 school year. The ambitious, free online service aggregates the highest quality, curriculum-based public media content--much of it gleaned from WGBH productions--and delivers it to PreK-16 teachers via an innovative digital platform to help reimagine classroom learning, transform teaching, and creatively engage students.Now the nation's time-challenged, budget-constrained teachers can call up thousands of on-demand digital resources drawn from public media--videos, background essays, interactive lesson plans, and more--to capture students' interest and raise achievement. And teachers appreciate that they can easily organize and share resources as well as create their own class pages. In partnership with PBS stations nationwide, PBS Learning Media is delivering this core free service along with a cost-effective premium service for states and school districts that want to customize the content to meet their individual standards. More than 24,000 educators registered during the first six months, joining the 670,000+ Teachers' Domain members poised to migrate to the service in 2012. PBS Learning Media is making good on public media's promise to be a key part of America's education agenda. Our trusted, curriculum-based programs and services are furthering students' achievement to meet the demands and opportunities of the 21st century.American Experience undertook its most ambitious outreach effort ever: 40 college students "got on the bus" with original Freedom Riders and journalists, video blogging and tweeting as they retraced the 1961 route. Committed to documenting struggles for equality, American Experience also chronicled workers' and gay rights with its 2011 films Triangle Fire and Stonewall Uprising.WGBH and the Boston Symphony Orchestra have been partners since its beginning. In 2011 we expanded this partnership by making BSO concerts available not only live on Saturday evenings, but via rebroadcasts on Sundays, and at any time on our new online BSO Radio channel at classicalnewengland.org.

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 expenses2010 12,127,0152009 (45,877,702)2008 (18,293,464)2007 54,737,0242006 1,478,8772005 18,653,501
