Unexpected Heroes


One example of a person who was a no body and became a hero is Danielle Gletow. She started a foundation called One Simple Wish, which helps grant wishes to children in foster cares. Each wish from a child is posted online and from there anyone who is capable of granted that wish can do so. Since 2008, over 4,000 wishes have been granted thanks to Danielle.
Thanks to One Simple Wish, more foster children are able to do the things they\'ve always wanted to do but couldn\'t.

 

Another example of an average person becoming a hero would be Michael Carter. Carter started a nonprofit organization that helps high school students work through the college application process. He does this, by pairing college students with high school students so that they are able to work together through the financial aid and scholarships. Carter’s idea has already helped over 600-low income students get into colleges and universities.      
Michael Carter\'s nonprofit has already helped 600 low-income students enter four-year colleges and universities.
