See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. Thrive by Five, Washington - 199 PSA's -- Over the past decade, Thrive by Five Washington has been a leader in creating Washington's high-quality early learning system and combining public and private dollars to help. It has been at the forefront of developing geographic, demographic and content-based alliances to develop and implement projects that serve families and their young children. Along with legislative support, philanthropists, business people and community leaders, who believe in early learning to give children a better start in school and life. DSHS WA Division of Child Support - 133 PSA's Department of Social and Health Services serves to decrease poverty, improve safety and health status, and increase educational and employment success to support people and communities in reaching their potential. The Division of Child Support is centered around healthy, stable children. CDC Childhool Immunizations - 170 PSA's CDC works 24/7 to protect America from health, safety and security threats, both foreign and in the U.S. Whether diseases start at home or abroad, are chronic or acute, curable or preventable, human error or deliberate attack, CDC fights disease and suports communities and citizens to do the same. CDC increases the health security of our nation. As the nation's health protection agency, CDC saves lives and protects people from health threats. To accomplish our mission, CDC conducts critical science and provides health information that protects our nation against expensive and dangerous health threats and responds when these arise. Adopt Us Kids/Ad Council - 170 PSA's "Adopt Us Kids" aims to promote adoption from foster care and raise awareness of the significant number of older youth waiting to be adopted. The new materials are part of the National Adoption Recruitment Campaign and Response. Featuring the theme "You don't have to be perfect to be a perfect parent", this campaign, developed in partnership with the U.S. Children's Bureau and Ad Council, illustrates through humor that youth in foster care don't need perfection; they need the commitment and love a permanent adoptive family can provide. Make a Wish - 160 PSA's - Make-A-Wish grants the wish of a child diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition in the United States and its territories, on average, every 38 minutes. We believe that a wish experience can be a game-changer.

In each episode, our hosts visit a manmade or natural wonder, have an adventure involving animals, and learn about a new culture by visiting with local kids from different countries around the world.
