The campaign is proud
to sponsor StoryCorps*, a national project to
instruct and inspire people to record each others'
stories in sound. The campaign is featuring
selections from StoryCorps’ “extraordinary stories
from everyday people.” Listen and you may hear your
own experiences in some of these stories.
* StoryCorps is made possible by
funding from the Corporation for Public
Broadcasting, and through the support of
participants and listeners nationwide. StoryCorps is
a project of Sound Portraits Productions in
partnership with the American Folklife Center at the
Library of Congress, and National Public Radio. |
