Local 10 News seeks extraordinary individuals who represent 'Heart of South Florida'

PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. ā€“ Local 10 News is searching for extraordinary individuals who represent the "Heart of South Florida."

In February, Local 10 launched the "Heart of South Florida," an initiative to recognize 10 people in the community who are making a difference.Ā The segment was so well received that it evolved into a weekly news feature.Ā 

Morning news anchor Eric Yutzy shares the inspiring stories every Friday in the early evening news.Ā 

It may be a report on a cancer survivor who began a foundation to help others beat the odds, a teacher who uses unique and creative techniques to reach special-needs students or a salute to a military hero who returned home from fighting overseas.Ā 

Since its inception, the segment has recognized dozens of Local 10's selfless neighbors and is an uplifting way to end the work week.
