  • The site shows you ways to get involved wether through education or cooperation created by Dr. Philip Zimbardo, an American psychologist and a emeritus professor at Standford University
  • “Heroic imagination” is a mindset- a set of attitudes which begins with the desire to help others, and grows into the willingness to act on behalf of others, or in defense of integrity or a moral cause, at some risk and without expectation of gain.
  • Heroic action is:

    • Engaged in voluntarily;
    • Conducted in service to one or more people or the community as a whole;
    • Involves a risk to physical comfort, social stature, or quality of life; and
    • Initiated without the expectation of material gain.
