Emmis Communications is an Indianapolis-based diversified media firm with radio broadcasting, television broadcasting and magazine publishing operations. Emmis’ 20 FM stations and 3 AM domestic radio stations serve the nation’s largest markets of New York, Los Angeles and Chicago as well as Denver, Phoenix, St. Louis, Indianapolis and Terre Haute, IN. In addition, Emmis owns two radio networks, three international radio stations, 15 television stations, six award-winning regional and specialty magazines and ancillary businesses in broadcast sales and publishing.

Emmis Communications takes its corporate citizenship seriously. As a fast-growing international media company, it knows it must use its many resources to address pressing problems. And as a collection of local broadcasters and publishers, it believes it should use its stations and publications to improve individual communities.

The company backs these beliefs with deeds: last year Emmis pumped more than $23 million in cash, in-kind contributions and fund-raising into its communities. Each year the company provides millions of dollars in advertising time and space to not-for-profit agencies. This kind of giving has a double impact: it provides not-for-profits with needed exposure while preserving the agencies’ service dollars.

Emmis recognizes that it has a responsibility to leverage its resources and visibility to support its communities. Through various forms of giving, Emmis and its individual publishers and broadcasters strive to make a difference in its communities.
