Hello and welcome. This is the upside with Jordan, A
dose of good news because it's a big world out there.
After the devastating hurricane that swept through North Carolina last year,
the stories of damage, injury, and loss were devastating, but
numerous random acts of kindness have made the difference. A
tip of the hat to a big corporation, Verizon. North
Carolina families have learned that Verizon cleared their medical, financial
(00:22):
and other debts with the help of Forgive Co with
no applications or further action required by the beneficiaries. Verizon,
working with forgivec has effectively eliminated many payments that victims
of the hurricane were unable to make. People receive notice
of this through letters, emails, and text messages and even
a phone call from Asheville, North Carolina native Roy Williams,
(00:42):
the basketball Hall of Fame coach, and on that call,
the message went like this, these are challenging times, but
I've seen the strength and resilience of this community. Verizon
support is a powerful reminder that no one is alone
and together we will rise stronger. And that's the upside
with Jordan. WZ Boston's news radio
