Open the door and the warm aroma of coffee welcomes you. There are couples in animated conversation; friends playing games; and small groups in deep discussion. There may be musicians tucked in the corner. It feels like home.

That was the goal for Amie Pierone, founding director of the Eden Tea and Coffee House on the edge of the Arizona State University campus. With a degree in mathematics and an MBA, she entered the corporate world where she excelled. Then she was compelled to create a coffeehouse as an outreach opportunity for students and the surrounding community. It was her calling.

Eden is located in a historic craftsman home, complete with creaky floors and a forest of plants flourishing in the sunlit room. The Hiebert House, built in 1914, is part of the Campus Christian Center (C3) welcoming and loving all who pass through the doors, regardless of their faith, background, or experiences. Here they find peace.

Here they find home.

The Rescuers radio show provides an opportunity to spotlight people who are working behind the scenes to make this world a better place. These people serve as inspiration and idea starters to encourage others to find creative ways to impact their community, their city, and the world.

Host Art Brooks has spent his career in broadcasting, both as on-air talent and in representing the industry as president and CEO of the Arizona Broadcasters Association for nearly 30 years. He was the driving force behind an Emmy-winning series of documentaries on drug abuse that combined a phone bank of 100 seasoned counselors and history-making "roadblock," as every TV station in Arizona and many radio stations broadcast the groundbreaking show on the same day at the same time. He also was instrumental in starting AZ AMBER Alert (one of two states in the nation where broadcasters initiated the program), helped form the Native American Broadcast Institute at Northern Arizona University and consulted with broadcasters in Bulgaria to help build commercial radio as the country was coming out of communism.

Rescuers airs 5:30-6 p.m. AZ time Thursdays on KPXQ-AM Faith Talk 1360, beginning May 7, 2020. Based in Phoenix, it is available internationally online. We invite you to submit names of heroes you think would be good subjects for the show - just message us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/rescuersradioshow/
