Well it’s that time of year again. As you get older you wonder why the years seem to pass by just a little faster than they used to. This is a great time to look back on the highlights of 2010, especially as how they relate to Kids Are Heroes. And I can’t wait to see what unfolds in 2011!

Without further ado, here are the top ten (in random order of importance) accomplishments of 2010 for Kids Are Heroes:

In March we were granted our 501(c)(3) non-profit status.
Launched the ambassadors program which recruits superstars to help us get the word out.
Featured two heroes from overseas.
MaryMargaret won the status of being featured as a role model in an international tween magazine.
Held a Kids Are Heroes Day in June in Gettysburg.
Established a relationship with a company that will set up video conferences with our heroes and schools in the US and Canada.
The name “Kids Are Heroes” was successfully trademarked.
Broke the 25,000 follower mark on Twitter and 2500 fans on Facebook.
Had our best Kids Are Heroes Day ever in October of 2010.
Connected with a production company that is going to shop our stories to networks.

As I look back things went pretty much the same way as they did in 2008 and 2009. We are gradually getting more recognition, getting bigger and each event gets better. We are looking for MUCH bigger things to happen in 2011 however. Thanks to all of you for your continuous support!
