Explore how ordinary Michiganders become extraordinary!
We created a place to lift up the Heroes of our communities
Each day in the great state of Michigan, citizens and organizations are changing lives and solving community challenges. The MI Heroes Campaign was created to recognize individuals and organizations that have made a difference for Michigan and its residents.
Imagine the power when we work together to uplift our everyday heroes, showcase their stories, and have their collective heroism inspire us all to make a difference.

To Those We've Lost:
Not only do we celebrate the Heroes of Michigan, we remember them. Many heroes have been lost over the past 18 months – celebrating their lives and legacies has been more challenging. We want to make special mention of those heroes throughout this project and make sure they receive a just remembrance
