Preserving Family History Is More Important Than Ever
If the past year has left us with anything good, it’s a feeling of righteous urgency to make the most of the time we have with our loved ones. Enter: Mamabird Interviews, a new company founded by a local teacher and some of his students to help families embrace and preserve their histories. When we heard about the work they’re doing, we needed to know more, so we had City Cast Denver’s very own Peyton Garcia, who you know from our newsletter, try it out. Today on the show, host Bree Davies sits down with Peyton and one of Mamabird’s co-founders Areyana Proctor to talk through Peyton’s experience and the value of preserving family history.
BTW, when she’s not working with Mamabird, Areyana is kicking butt all up and down the quad. Last month, she was named Newman Civic Fellow at CU Boulder!
