Who Is Your Local Hero?

To celebrate Black History Month, NewsOne is proud to honor Game Changers, everyday people that make a difference.

With each amazing story, we aim to shine the spotlight on extraordinary citizens that deserve more than just a mention within their own communities — people like La’Shanda Holmes, Maria Davis, and Maya Rupert. (Pictures of them can be found in the gallery below.)

In the spirit of these Game Changers, we want you to submit stories about people you know who are making a difference in your community.
