If you want KMBC to endorse or provide in-kind sponsorship for a program or event, submit a project proposal to the public affairs department.

A project proposal form needs to be completed for KMBC to consider the request. To receive a form contact:

Olivia Dorsey
KMBC Public Affairs Dept.
6455 Winchester Ave.
Kansas City, MO 64133
(816)760-9222

Or click here to download an application.

Project proposals should include:

A description of the program or event. List the event date(s), time(s) and location(s). Include how many years the event has been held and how many people are expected to attend.

Indicate whether KMBC has been involved with the event in the past and if there are other media sponsors involved, too.

Please explain how the proceeds from the event will be used and what percentage of the net proceeds will directly support programs within KMBC's primary coverage area.

Please specify what is needed from KMBC (e.g., program/event on-air promotion, on-air talent, news coverage, etc.)

List any promotional opportunities available to KMBC through this event (e.g., logos on brochures and t-shirts, banners/booth at events, etc.)

Please submit the project proposal as early as one year in advance and no later than six months before the event.

The project proposal will be reviewed to determine whether the program or event is consistent with the current goals and objectives of the KMBC public affairs program. If the event meets selection policy criteria and the event can be worked into the existing public affairs calendars, someone from the public affairs department will contact you.

Please take into consideration that February, May, July and November are "sweeps" periods in the television industry. Station resources to promote public service events during these months are limited.

Once you have filled out the project proposal form please mail it to:

Olivia Dorsey
KMBC Public Affairs
6455 Winchester Ave.
Kansas City, MO 64133
