"Stories can conquer fear, you know. They can make the heart bigger." --Ben Okri
Everyone Has A Story The World Needs To Hear
Dave Isay opened the first StoryCorps booth in New Yorks Grand Central Terminal in 2003 with the intention of creating a quiet place where a person could honor someone who mattered to them by listening to their story. Since then, StoryCorps has evolved into the single largest collection of human voices ever recorded. Isay is the 2015 TED Prize winner, with an award of $1 million to fulfill a wish: to grow this digital archive of the collective wisdom of humanity. Listen to Isay's vision to take StoryCorps global and how you can be a part of it by interviewing someone with the StoryCorps app.
BE THE CHANGE
David Isay sees StoryCorps as being primarily about listening. Give the gift of listening closely to a loved one today.
