Garden Valley Technologies is excited to have the opportunity to work closely with local schools to provide live broadcasts of student-run productions. In addition to the broadcasting equipment and technical support, GVT will now be offering a $5,000 media club advisor grant to each of the ten schools, which will total up to $50,000.
The purpose of these $5,000 grants are to compensate the media club/program advisors for their time both during and after school. GVT also provides additional payments directly to the media clubs to help offset the costs associated with broadcasting events.
Over the last year, we have seen several great improvements with our School and Local Content channels. Increased viewership, custom content created by students, advertising opportunities and student announcers doing play-by-play alongside radio broadcasters. The students and staff at these schools have dedicated countless hours to learning and running the equipment to provide parents, grandparents, friends and family the opportunity to cheer on their favorite student(s) from home.
GVT School and Local Content channels are available to live stream for free to all GVT members. Live streaming can be viewed from your PC, laptop, tablet, or mobile device. In order to access live streamed events, you will need to subscribe to at least one GVT service (Phone, Internet, GVTV, Security, or Cellular) and register for a GVT E-Bill username and password to receive free access (you do not need to pay your bill using E-Bill). Not a current GVT member? No problem, there are monthly or yearly subscription options. Visit www.gvtel.com/livestream/ for more information.
All revenue generated from paid subscriptions goes directly back to support School and Local Content channels and equipment updates.
