Only one national community service Emmy is presented
each year to a local television station and its community
organization for a campaign that provides an excellent
example of outstanding social messages and services to
its community.
A winner is chosen from several hundred entries by
a blue-ribbon panel of judges including community leaders,
clergy, educators, businesspeople, and artists.
