WTAP under CNN's eye

Earning more Kudos, the Welcome to America Project in Metro-Phoenix reached out to refugee families last Saturday in front of a CNN camera for an upcoming Heroes segment. With a full crew making light work of heavy furniture and other household goods, WTAP furnished the homes of three families including two from Burma/Myanmar and one from Sudan. While the adults moved the big pieces the young volunteers made new friends, bridging language barriers with new toys for the refugee children. As volunteers shook hands and welcomed their new neighbors, some of the grateful refugees, moved by the generosity, rewarded them with big hugs.
