Review for My Hero Project Inc, Laguna Beach, CA, USA
I can’t praise the MY HERO Project enough! MY HERO has promoted the good news of humanity for so many years. The website offers a place where children and adults can tell the stories of people doing good in this world, as well as create other kinds of artwork including films that promote peace and understanding. Free access to thousands of stories and other materials provides encouragement for everyone to look for the good and spread the word. I have the highest respect and gratitude for MY HERO for adding positive messages and maintaining such a powerful resource for all.
Review for My Hero Project Inc, Laguna Beach, CA, USA
I have loved the MY HERO Project since I first learned about it more than 20 years ago! What a simple idea--to celebrate humanity through the good news via stories, films, and art! The support for teachers is wonderful. For young people to have published their hero story online as part of this worldwide community must be thrilling!
Review for My Hero Project Inc, Laguna Beach, CA, USA
I love MY HERO! I talk about the MY HERO Project at every education conference where I speak because everything about it--from the idea of a global repository of stories, short films, and art works celebrating humanity to the resources in the teacher room and the beautiful, accessible website--contribute to the positive understanding of the power of connections, mutual respect, and the value of seemingly small efforts to make the world a better place.
Review for My Hero Project Inc, Laguna Beach, CA, USA
MY HERO provides the space where children and adults from around the world can share their stories, short films, and art work about their heroes and heroism. The stories are charming, moving, passionate, poignant, and personal, and tell us all about the good people and good work that is being done. As a teacher educator, I encourage teachers to have their students explore the MY HERO resources and consider the idea of heroic acts--large and small--and even see themselves as heroes (both teachers and students!). Each of us can make a positive difference in our lives and those of others. MY HERO suggests this is so, and proves it by promoting these ideas through providing a space for the stories, with the result that we all can learn about other members of our global community who have done good, often through overcoming obstacles--which then provides inspiration for us all.
