By statute, more than 70% of the annual federal appropriation for public broadcasting goes directly to public media stations through Community Service Grants. Grants and subgrants for programs, projects and services from the rest of the annual appropriation are listed here, along with grants from a separate appropriation for interconnection and infrastructure, as well as funding CPB administers from the U.S. Department of Education for the Ready To Learn program and from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for the Next Generation Warning System.

Funding by State listings include both Community Service Grants and other CPB direct grants by year, listed where the grantee is based. Funding amounts in both sections are subject to change as contracts are amended.
