Not all heroes wear capes (although COVID has definitely brought the spandex back).
Most heroes walk among us, shop alongside us, wait in the school pickup lines next to us.
And while they do the ordinary, they are also doing things that are quite extraordinary.
In our first Hometown Heroes episode we talk to Jessica Reinmann, CEO of 914Cares, a local Westchester, NY mission-based 501c3 nonprofit organization focused on supporting people in the community with their basic human needs. Jess talks about the disparity of wealth in the 8th most affluent county in the United States and the plight of women, and mothers especially, in the pandemic. We take a somber look at some eye-opening statistics and talk about how everyone can help, in ways big and small, and be a part of real change.
