First, Henderson was awarded an elite scholarship by the Women in
Cable Telecommunications (WICT). She is one 120 women selected for its
"2011 Rising Leaders Program," a week-long immersion in leadership
skills, stress management, wellness and more, funded by a grant from
the Walter Kaitz Foundation.
Henderson also received the coveted Multichannel News "40 Under 40"
distinction. Editors of Multichannel News annually select 40 movers
and shakers under the age of 40 who are helping their companies grow
and succeed, while playing an important part in mapping the future of
cable and telecommunications. Henderson's recognition was published
in the April 18, 2011 edition of Multichannel News.
Finally, CableFax honored Halogen TV with the Digital Award for Best
of the Web - Social Media Campaign for Halogen TV + Charity water:
Let's build a well together; a project that led to the establishment
of a well in the Central African Republic that will provide clean
water to 250 people for 20 years. This is part of a wider effort to
address critical practical issues in Africa and other areas of the
world.
"As the architect behind Halogen TV, Becky's passion is people," noted
Kyle Chowning, VP of Halogen TV. "She found particular inspiration in
Mahatma Gandhi's words, 'You must be the change you want to see in the
world.' She founded Halogen to motivate people to action. Her vision
is that Halogen be a platform that brings a spotlight to key social
and moral issues of our time, and encourages social consciousness
throughout society."
Chowning continued, "We are honored and humbled by this recognition
from industry peers. These awards validate our efforts as we, along
with our programmers and viewers, impact local and global communities.
Halogen TV is more than entertainment. It's where people connect with
purpose and with each other. The network and website tell stories that
matter to a growing demographic searching for information, inspiration
and ideas on how to make a difference where they are, with what they
already have."
Halogen TV is available in the Charlotte-metro area on Time Warner
Cable channel 282. Check local listings for programs or visit www.halogentv.com
