How Sponsorship Works

We begin by learning about your story. What does your business stand for? Who are you hoping to reach?
Next, we identify opportunities within our content that align with your brand’s goals, whether on-air or online.
For our broadcast sponsors, we collaborate with you on a message that is clear and concise, that resonates with our viewers without any commercial distraction.
Lastly, we connect your brand with our audience alongside trusted, high-quality content.

Tailored Opportunities for Every Business

At PBS Hawai‘i, we believe that meaningful sponsorships aren’t one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re a small local business or a national brand, we’ll work with you to find the right opportunity that fits your goals and budget.  

With a strong presence across broadcast and digital platforms, we’re able to help you connect with your community in a way that feels authentic, strategic, and impactful.

A Story Told Together

Your support makes it possible for us to share stories that might otherwise go untold, to reach learners of all ages, and to preserve the voices, values, and traditions that make Hawai‘i unique. When you become a sponsor, you’re not just investing in your own business you’re investing in a stronger, more connected Hawai‘i.
