Each weekday afternoon around 3:40 and 5:40 on KCBI, we shine a light on amazing people doing good things around Dallas-Fort Worth, Central Texas, and all over The Lone Star State! If you know anyone who has The Heartbeat of Texas (doing some good out there), let us know at KCBI.org so we can talk about it. Thanks!
