Who is your favorite Superhero?

Because today is National Superhero Day we ask the question: Who is your favorite Superhero? Is this person fictitious or is it a real Superhero who has inspired you?

I love Superheroes because they want to help others. They want to make the world a better place. They are unselfish and are a positive influence.

My favorite Superhero is a real person. She is someone who has inspired me for many years and has changed my life - my Sister Tracy - also known as Superwoman T-Si. She never tried to be an inspiration to others. She would say that she was just trying to live her life, but in doing just that, she was and still is an inspiration.


On this day to recongize our Superheroes, be sure to share with us your favorite Superhero and why?

National Pay It Forward Day

Doing something for someone else can be exhilarating plus you can possibly help someone else in ways that you may never quite know how it will effect them or even you.

National Pay It Forward day is today, April 24 and we want to honor that day at Help Your Hero. Help Your Hero was built on a 1991 Pay It Forward promise that my sister Tracy and I made to each other that has been life changing for both of us and now many more people and that is awesome!

To help jump start your Pay It Forward, we have listed out many Pay it Forward ideas that are simple and free. Be sure that you share with us how you paid it forward so we can all celebrate this National Pay It Forward day!

Sometimes you have to ask for help.

Sometimes you have to ask for help and this is one of those times...

When my team and I first began working on the unique concept for HelpYourHero.org to honor Tracy and Grant's legacy, we agreed early on that it should always be free to register and use. By eliminating membership fees, we are able to provide tools and services to the supportive communities around children with medical conditions without increasing financial burdens. After all, families of children with medical conditions don’t need to worry about coming up with money for one more thing. We know what it’s like to already have so much your mind and to be burdened by money, worry and fear.

As such, we have designed HelpYourHero.org to be sustained through a combination of corporate partnerships, merchandise sales, and later on as we grow, the sale of mobile apps and games. Until these things take off, however, we need your help while continuing to offer our free service. Creating and growing Help Your Hero is requiring a much greater financial investment than I am able to handle on my own. If my pay-it-forward promise is going to succeed, I must ask for help.


For those of you that know me, you know that I would rather give than receive, but I have to remind myself that this is not about me. I am asking for your financial support to help us continue developing HelpYourHero.org into what we've envisioned. To do this we need your financial support.

Trust me when I say I know that times are still tough for all of us. The financial toll of launching and maintaining Help Your Hero has become more than I had planned and certainly more than I can afford on my own. Every contribution help - in big or small ways!

If you are not in a position to help with a donation at this time, please share our website with your social circles to help us reach more people. Thoughts and prayers are also extremely welcome, as Help Your Hero has always been based on the foundation of positive thinking!

Thanks so much for your kindness!
All the Best, always!
