The Media Patron program was created in an effort to further the U.S. Centennial of Flight Commission's mission to inform and educate people of all ages about the history and development of powered flight. The goal of the program is to generate widespread awareness for the Centennial of Flight: Born of Dreams - Inspired by Freedom commemoration.
Media outlets that are selected must be able to generate in-kind media exposure through multiple distribution channels. In exchange for the exposure, approved media outlets will be designated as "Media Patrons." In essence, the Commission will exchange the value of the media exposure for the right to use the Centennial logo and "Patron" designation.
In order to be designated as a Media Patron, media outlets must meet several criteria, including but not limited to:
- The ability to reach millions of viewers/readers through multiple channels.
- The ability to create a national impact, generating at least 15 million impressions.
- The ability to offer content/programming relevant to the Centennial celebration, which must include an educational component.
To date, the U.S. Centennial of Flight Commission has selected Third Millennium
Entertainment.
