Where does MPT acquire its funding? How does MPT spend its money?
MPT has been an independent agency of the State of Maryland since its 1969 establishment, less than one-third or our budget comes from state money. That means that approximately two-thirds needs to be raised each year to fund the activities of MPT- the programs you see on your television set plus the non-broadcast, educational, outreach, telecommunications, and Internet initiatives that touch the lives of tens of thousands of Marylanders annually.
