Skylar Medes and Bob Hoffman

The organization ePIFanyNow encourages and spread acts of kindness in the Lansing area. Their upcoming annual Y-PIF awards are for young people doing good in the community.

WKAR’s Brooke Allen speaks with the organization’s founder, Bob Hoffman, and Skylar Medes who was one of last year’s Y-PIF recipients.

For more information about the contest or to nominate a kid who's doing good in the community, visit ePIFanyNow.org. To stay informed about Skylar's project, follow Suitcases for Kids on Facebook.

WKAR’s first live pledge drive since federal funding was eliminated is happening now. Our goal for the drive is $60,000 and reaching it will bring us one step closer to closing the federal funding gap.
