The Program Challenge Fund was created in 1987 to support high profile, primetime limited series and specials for the national public television schedule. The Challenge Fund is jointly administered by CPB and PBS, which make funding decisions based on mutually established programming goals and objectives. The Program Challenge Fund is currently looking for high-visibility, high-impact limited series and feature length documentaries that offer a definitive take on a subject or break new ground in popular, public service media. There is no standard application process for the Program Challenge Fund, and producers should submit projects according to the general CPB Recommended Submission Guidelines. Producers should also contact PBS. Only those projects deemed to meet the Challenge Fund priorities by CPB and PBS programming teams will be among the final projects considered for investment at the appropriate Program Challenge Fund meeting.
