Last Call for Larry Richert's Hometown Heroes!

NewsRadio 1020 KDKA and Larry Richert are looking to identify five local men or women and honor them for their service to the community for the second annual Larry Richert Honors our Hometown Heroes. KDKA is seeking nominations of individuals who have stood out for their service to the community or for extraordinary acts of heroism. The deadline is December 31, 2013.

Five heroes will be honored at a dinner on Thursday, March 6, 2014 at the Lexus Club at PNCPark. Each hero will also receive $1000 to donate to a 501(C)(3) charity of their choice. Ticket proceeds will benefit the Wounded Warriors Project.
