A podcast that celebrates the people working to make our communities stronger and affirms the power of the human spirit. WEDU PBS has hosted the Be More Awards to champion our community’s nonprofits for almost two decades. We’ve heard so many inspiring stories over the years, we just had to share! On this podcast, you’ll hear from passionate change-makers, advocates for the arts, and people who have overcome unimaginable trauma with a little help. We hope to show the value of kindness and community, and why we should all try to be more unstoppable. This monthly podcast is hosted by Veronica Alfaro.
