TFK SPECIAL ISSUE
Spring 2001



Last fall we asked readers to send us stories about the heroes working in their communities to keep the planet healthy. Wow! We got hundreds of nominations, many more than we could publish in a single magazine. You'll find some of their stories by clicking the links below. A list of other heroes appears as the "Hometown Heroes Hall of Fame".

We're happy Ford Motor Company could make "Hometown Heroes: Watching over the World" possible. Read all about these hardworking folks, who come from communities just like yours. We hope you will be convinced that you should join their ranks.
