TULSA — KRMG and Cox Media Group in Tulsa learned Wednesday that the radio station had won another Crystal Radio Award from the National Association of Broadcasters.
The NAB announced the winners of the CRA during a virtual awards ceremony held Wednesday.
The station was one of only ten in the nation recognized by the Crystal Radio Award for its community service efforts.
In an email to the newsroom, KRMG Director of Branding and Programming Levi May noted that the award represents more than just the hard work of the radio station's staff.
Specifically, KRMG was singled out for its "Stories of Light" fundraising campaign, which benefits Make-A-Wish® Oklahoma.
“While this is KRMG’s award, it’s an award that goes to the entire Tulsa community, because it is community service,” May wrote. “We can’t do it without our great, passionate and loyal audience and the local organizations we work with.”
The 2019 Stories of Light campaign was the largest fundraiser of the year for that organization, bringing in more than $325,000.
