I have been a volunteer for N4N since Hurricane Andrew hit Miami in 1992. They initiated a phone bank with CBS 4 that helped those in need. Southern Florida was devastated.
Since then, they have helped those in need in conjunction with many non-profits in Miami-Dade and Broward counties.
The annual Adopt a Family program has made the holidays happy for many needy families.
Lynne Cameron works tirelessly to help those in need.
