This week’s Hometown Hero, presented by Hendrick Southpoint, is Pristine Onuoha!

17-year-old Onuoha has been recognized in the past for her community contributions, and she’s this week’s Hometown Hero for a variety of reasons — from her work with her school’s National Achievers Society/Future Advancement for Minority Education club in fundraising and scholarships and her efforts to increase acknowledgement of Black historical figures past and present to her work volunteering to coordinate mail deliveries and cookouts serving underprivileged community member and beyond!

Listen to this week’s Hometown Hero segment below, and check in next week for another recognition of someone who is making a difference in our community!
