NYSBA celebrates local broadcasters’ commitment to serving their communities by presenting stations with a “Serving New York Award.” We also honor the public service groups that work with local stations to improve the quality of life in communities throughout the Empire State. We recognize commercial, non-commercial, and college stations for their efforts.
​
​We encourage all stations to submit a “public service” campaign or project electronically using the forms associated with each city mentioned above.
-
Submit a brief description of the campaign
-
The campaign may be on the air (PSA) or an off-air project.
-
Submit only one campaign per station.
-
It may be a digital or traditional broadcast.

Stations must be present at the luncheon to receive a Serving New York Recognition
All stations submitting a public service campaign will be recognized at our regional lunches. Stations and members from the public service organizations will receive the now famous NYSBA Crystal Bowl.
​
Stations are encouraged to invite a public interest group with whom they worked during the past year. Representatives from the public interest groups will also be recognized at the luncheon.
Note that the Serving New York Recognition is different from the Excellence in Broadcasting Awards. If you receive an Excellence in Broadcasting Award for a PSA campaign, please do not submit the same campaign for a serving New York Award. You may submit a different campaign for the Serving New York Award. However, we will present both awards at the same luncheon. Luncheons will be held this fall in Buffalo, Rochester, Binghamton, Syracuse, Albany, Long Island, and New York City.
​
Select the location where you would like to receive the "Serving New York Award." You will then be directed to a separate page and asked to complete a “Serving New York” submission form. ​
