Gabriel Award
The Gabriel Awards were started by the Catholic Academy for Communication Arts Professionals in 1965, and are currently administered by the Catholic Press Association. The awards are designed to honor excellence in broadcasting. Awards are given to national and local market radio and television broadcasters to "recognize outstanding artistic achievement... which entertains and enriches with a true vision of humanity..." being presented with a Gabriel Award.
In 2014, for example, television station WRAL in Raleigh, North Carolina, was recognized by the Gabriel Awards for its news division's production of programs dealing with childhood homelessness and conditions in Haiti.
