Be My Neighbor Day! Recap
In 2025, West Virginia Public Broadcasting held its very first Be My Neighbor Day! event at City Center at Slack Plaza in Charleston, West Virginia.
This was a free, outdoor event with 600 attendees that promoted being a caring neighbor. WVPB partnered with over 20 local organizations to bring the community together and support others by making 300 care kits for families and children.
We had photo opportunities with Daniel Tiger and Katerina Kittycat, we made care kits for Big Creek People in Action and Children’s Home Society of West Virginia, saw incredible reptiles through Zoology Zone Science Center’s Reptile Show, we had yoga, storytime and even painted a community mural with West Virginia artist Nichole Westfall.
