They may also submit a different campaign for each station in the cluster, but no more than one campaign per station.

Attending representatives of your invited public interest group will also be presented with an award. 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. Select the location where you would like to receive the "Serving New York Award."

- First Informers | NYS Broadcasters
First Informers During Emergencies Local broadcasting is essential during emergencies and extreme weather in NYS In New York State, news media is recognized as an essential service. Broadcasters provide life-saving information to their local communities during emergencies and extreme weather events. They are first responders who report on dangerous incidents, how to find food and water in a crisis, what roads are closed, evacuation details, and other crucial public safety services. On a day-to-day basis, your local stations serve your best interest. When the power goes out or cell phone services get overloaded, broadcasters are still on the air. You can stay informed through a battery-powered radio, a TV or radio station's digital platforms, or a vehicle's AM radio. To continue to serve their community during an emergency, some stations have backup technology and fuel reserves for generators and news vehicles. Essentially, radio and TV can be a lifeline in the bleakest of times. Broadcasters are there for YOU during emergencies. To play, press and hold the enter key. To stop, release the enter key. Emergency Alert System During emergencies, many stations provide uninterrupted life-saving information. Our one-to-many broadcast system allows us to simultaneously send detailed emergency messages to all New Yorkers free of charge. We are founding partners in the state AMBER Alert program and fully support programs to help vulnerable persons. Learn More When Hurricane Sandy hit New York City in 2012, radio and TV stations in the city provided countless hours of continuous coverage that reached millions through broadcast and digital platforms. Every TV station in the city stayed on the air and even transmitted their audio feed to local FM radio stations, which also remained up and running. Because of this, communities were kept informed during the disaster; radio listenership was up 70% in the New York Metro area and an astounding 245% in Nassau and Suffolk counties. Stations worked with their parent companies to raise millions in relief funds. News coverage during this time was the ultimate team effort. Extreme weather in New York is not just limited to hurricanes. In July 2024, a tornado touched down in Rome, New York, which devastated downtown businesses, nearby neighborhoods, and multiple historic churches. November 2024 saw wildfires ravage sections of the northeast that extended beyond New York and included Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Maine. The western part of the state also faces overwhelming snowfall each year. Local news coverage is more important than ever during increasingly common extreme weather events. Public Service We celebrate 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 NYS. Foxx & Annie's Food Fund - WCBS-FM Did you know nearly 1.3 Million New Yorkers are struggling to feed themselves and their families? With Foxx & Annie’s growing families, and everything becoming less affordable, they know all New Yorkers must be feeling the same pressure. Foxx & Annie teamed up with City Harvest, a non-profit organization that’s been around for over 40 years! City Harvest helped start the food rescue mission. We set out a goal to raise 50,000 meals for hungry New Yorkers. Along the way, we met volunteers and those who benefitted from City Harvest’s services. We are so grateful to have reached above and beyond our goal, we were able to provide 55,282 meals to New Yorkers!! Giving Day For Oishei Children's Hospital - WEDG, WHTT, WGRF Cumulus Buffalo radio stations 103.3 The Edge, Classic Hits 104.1, and 97 Rock joined forces with its listeners on Tuesday, May 21st, to raise over $430,000 for Buffalo’s John R.

- POP Program | New York State Broadcasters Association
Learn more about the benefits of utilizing the Public Outreach Partnership Program. Public Outreach Partnership Program (POP) The POP program (formally known as the Non-commercial Sustaining Announcement Program) provides government agencies and non-profit organizations the opportunity to target and reach all citizens of New York State from the tip of Long Island to Niagara Falls at significantly reduced costs. OUR PO P PROGR AM Maximize Reach through Broadcasting: We aggregate advertising time/spots from multiple television and radio stations in every market across the Empire State, from N ew York City to Buffalo and Plattsburgh to Jamestown. We then offer these time slots to government entities and non-profit organizations at discounted rates. With most TV and radio stations participating in the program, POP reaches every corner of New York State. With more consumers “cutting the cord,” approximately 14% of U.S. homes are not connected to satellite or cable services. They receive TV through an antenna, making broadcast TV the only video medium with universal reach. Under federal law, local TV stations are carried by all cable and satellite services. Radio reaches 92% of all listeners, exceeding the reach of other media platforms. Learn more about our television station reach Learn more about our radio station reach Broadcasting exceeds the reach of other platforms Full Complement of Digital Services: We provide a full complement of digital advertising services including targeted display, programmatic targeting, device ID, geo-fencing and micro-proximity, email direct, search engine marketing (SEM), search engine optimization (SEO), native, pre-roll video, OTT and social media placement on Facebook and Instagram. Learn more about our digital offerings POP is better than a “PSA” Program: Government agencies and non-profit organizations often rely on public service announcements (PSAs) to get their message out to the public. Most PSAs are often broadcast during overnight periods when audiences are small. POP is not a PSA program. Because of our relationship with participating stations, POP spots are seen and heard during popular times. Proof of Performance: We use Nielsen, the gold standard in broadcast data reporting, to provide proof of performance for your radio and TV campaign.
