Artists For Humanity Made NBC Channel 10 News!

We can't think of a better way to end our seven-week, youth summer employment session than with an interview with NBC Channel 10 News! AFH employed over 460 youth and young adults this summer—generating nearly $1.4 million in summer wages for Boston teens and young adults working at AFH and, as a Coalition Lead for the City of Boston, 10 Boston nonprofits. 

Listen to the clip and enjoy some behind-the-scene photos of the interviews in action!
