Who wouldn’t like to go to the internet and watch a beloved grandparent talking about his or her life? What about a veteran of a foreign war? GBCTV.net is making such things possible by gathering memories for posterity, securing facts about lives and generations that otherwise might be gone forever. WWII experiences; The Great Depression; the fashion, food and life details of every decade from the 1900’s are recounted through the eyes of those who were there. The stories are amazing and treasured.
GBCTV.net’s purpose is to digitally preserve historical events told by the people that lived them. All stories. Stories told in first person not necessarily found in history books. When your corporation teams with us to preserve and share these stories you could directly impact your community footprint. GBCTV.net gathers these stories with total respect to people and their communities in the digital era. Corporate Social Responsibility is good for the community. By teaming with us, your legacy within your community should be well remembered for helping bring these stories of Veterans, Athletes, Teachers, Scientists, Celebrities, Everyday People to life. To be shared and past down from Generation to Generation. Our data is collected legally and ethically with full respect to the people we interview.
