responsible stewardship of donor support governed KexP’s<br />

fiscal decision-making in <strong>2011</strong>, allowing us to invest further<br />

in developing programming services while ending the year<br />

strong with 6.2 months of operating coverage in our cash<br />

reserves. KexP’s total revenues in <strong>2011</strong> were $5,670,628.<br />

INDIVIDUAL AND BUSINESS SUPPORT<br />

contributions from 13,939 individual donors, donor-directed<br />

funds, corporate matching programs, and family foundations<br />

generated $2,547,150, representing 45 percent—and the<br />

largest portion—of KexP’s total revenue. Boosted by media<br />

attention around KexP’s campaign to move to seattle center<br />

and signs of a stabilizing economy, support from businesses<br />

surpassed projections, with more than 300 local and national<br />

businesses accounting for $1,179,199 (or 21 percent of total<br />

revenue), a significant 15 percent increase from the previous<br />

year.<br />

PROGRAM SERVICE REVENUE<br />

Programming ventures beyond the airwaves—including<br />

concession and ticket sales at events and concerts, as well<br />

as sales of Live at <strong>KEXP</strong> Volume Seven—accounted for three<br />

percent of total revenue.<br />

library in preparation for digitization; support for KexP’s<br />

community Partnership initiative came from u.s. Bancorp<br />

to offset general operating expenses.<br />

seattle office of arts and cultural affairs to finance Audioasis,<br />

seattle’s longest-running local music radio show. in addition,<br />

KexP received funding for its <strong>2011</strong> programs—including the<br />

fourth annual Concerts at the Mural series—from 4culture.<br />

IN-KIND SUPPORT<br />

KexP received notable in-kind support from individuals,<br />

organizations, and local and national businesses in the form of<br />

goods and services worth $1.5 million. of that in-kind support,<br />

$1.4 million came from KexP’s key partner, the university<br />

of Washington, from whom we received engineering, it,<br />

fundraising, and business system support.<br />

EXPENSES<br />

KexP’s total expenses in <strong>2011</strong> were $5,377,446, with 60<br />

percent of that amount dedicated to Programs. fundraising<br />

and administrative costs accounted for the remaining 34<br />
