Experience Corps featured on NBC Nightly News “Making A Difference” segment

“Making a Difference” stories usually air every Friday on NBC Nightly News. The series was conceived in response to viewers who complain that the broadcast features only “bad” news.

The broadcast received thousands of e-mails and we are sharing some of these stories, this week on “Nightly News.”
