Youthbuild of Rockford is hosting a live web-a-thon. It's similar to a PBS infomercial, where musical guests perform, and then local leaders talk about Youthbuild services in between. The program helps high school dropouts get their diploma. And in exchange, these students build homes for low-income families. The web-a-thon has been going on for the last five hours. And if you'd like to check it out, the website is www.liveonlineconcerts.com. It ends at the top of the hour.
