"Women and Giving" ~ Meet Janie Lucas, Mildred Braxton and Sarah DeBerry, three retired teachers in Fayetteville who have made their community stronger with after-school programs for children.
"Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders" ~ In Charlotte, Dr. Ki-Hyun Chun and his wire, Sunny, have built the largest Asian library in the southeast. And in Fayetteville, the annual International Folk Festival depends on volunteers like Gloria Canonizado, Vilma Jose and Fiante Kui Rivera.
