Distinguished guests will join journalist and returning Celebration of Service to America Awards host Tamron Hall to reveal the winners and highlight the impact local broadcasters have within their communities.

The 2021 Service to America Awards finalists collectively devoted more than 3,500 hours of airtime to public service and provided more than $43 million in funds and donations to support local businesses and charities to address the unique challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In addition to station awards, the NAB Leadership Foundation will present the inaugural John D. Dingell, Jr. Award for Excellence. The award recognizes members of Congress who epitomize the late congressman's dedication to public service and his bi-partisan work to pass legislation.

As previously announced, Lin-Manuel Miranda will receive the 2021 Service to Leadership Award, the NAB Leadership Foundation's highest individual honor.

The Celebration of Service to America Awards program will be available for airing by local stations through August 14.
