The Niagara Frontier Radio Reading Service provides reading and audio information services to listeners who are blind, have a visual impairment, or have another print-disability. The organization has been on-air for more than 30 years and, with the help of hundreds of dedicated volunteers, broadcasts - over the air and online - live and recorded readings of local & national newspapers, magazines, books and other printed content and material. The NFRRS has broadcast more than 200,000 hours of radio readings since 1987. Regarded as one of the nation's finest radio reading services, 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). The Niagara Frontier Radio Reading Service is a trusted friend to those who face each day without sight, helping them to be active members of society and improving their quality of life. All listeners are provided a special receiver free-of-charge. The receivers are tuned only to the NFRRS broadcast signal and provide instant, 24/7 access to a wide variety of printed matter.
