Poor Kids Escape T-Shirt

PBS was created in 1969 with the goal of providing educational, non-commercial programming to children, especially those from lower-income families. It was designed to offer high-quality content that could reach underserved communities who may not have access to private, commercial television channels. Programs like Sesame Street were developed to engage children with diverse, enriching content that promoted learning, social values, and emotional development, ensuring that even those in poverty had access to valuable educational resources.
