You can make a difference!

As you work your way through the Our Hidden Heroes program with your teacher and classmates, you will learn that we are all surrounded by more Hidden Heroes (positive role models) than hidden crooks and that each one of us really can make a positive difference in our school/workplace, family, community and beyond. In fact you will actually choose to do something and then study how what you have done has made a difference -often a big difference! You'll also learn that when we do good things for others, we usually get even more back for ourselves. Often the reward is simply the good feeling we get when we do something positive and sometimes it's much more than that.

Our Hidden Heroes Certificates

If you have found and written about a Hidden Hero and you would like to give them an official Our Hidden Heroes certificate, ask your teacher to email a request to certificate@ourhiddenheroes.org and we will send you a digital copy. You will be able to digitally complete the information in the spaces provided, (your name, your hero's name and the reason you chose him or her) and print it.

Rotary Youth Prorgrams
