An important part of NAB Leadership Foundation’s mission is to raise the visibility of broadcasters and highlight their impact on the communities they serve. From staffing food drives and fundraisers, to issuing public safety alerts and breaking news, from severe weather updates to investigative stories, local television and radio stations are part of a critical infrastructure that keeps communities safe, heard and informed. Every year, the Foundation hosts the Celebration of Service to America Awards to recognize these local television and radio stations and honor their hard work and commitment.
