.
Since 1987, the NFRRS has broadcast 190,000 hours of radio readings. Regarded as one of the nation's finest radio reading services for the blind, and New York State's best radio reading service,
the Niagara Frontier Radio Reading Service has compiled a track record of exemplary efficiency, productivity, and excellence.
NFRRS Honors include the Governor's Eleanor Roosevelt Community Service Award, the Buffalo Eye Bank Award (for service above and beyond the call of duty to the sight-impaired), and the J.C. Penny Golden Rule Award (for Western New York's outstanding volunteer service program).
