WASHINGTON -- Is there a person who makes a difference when you head to work or school in the morning? If so, News4 would like to hear the story.

We're looking for the people who go out of their way to put a spring in your step or a smile on your face. We want to hear about those unsung heroes out there, the ordinary people who make an extraordinary contribution to our community and to your everyday life.

NEWS4 MORNING PERSON SLIDESHOWS: Morning Person Archive

Is it the person who drives your bus, pours your coffee or welcomes your kids to school?

If you know of anyone like that, NBC4 now has two ways for you to tell his or her story.

You can now create a video of your morning person suggestion and send it to our site in order to help explain why he or she would make a great morning person. Just grab a camera, create a video capturing that special person in action, add your comments on why they should be nominated, and e-mail your video.

Or, you can always e-mail us the story, and send us a clear, close-up picture from your digital camera, your picture phone or your camcorder.

In either case, make sure you include a way we can contact you for more information.

Then we'll choose a News4 Morning Person and feature him or her on News4 Today from 5-7 a.m. and online.
