WECT is looking for people who go above and beyond in the community. Carolina in the Morning's Bob Townsend will share one person's story each month to be featured as the Cape Fear Hero.
Nominate someone you feel does a lot of the community, but doesn't get the recognition they deserve.
We're sorry, but only one entry is allowed per person. Thank you for your continued interest.
Thank you for your nomination. WECT will select a nominee each month. Winners will be announced the last Monday of each month on Carolina in the Morning and WECT News at 11. Videos of monthly winners will be posted on the Cape Fear Heroes homepage.
