Anyone know of any recent heroic acts?

[minniebeth]

...and have a link to an article? My DD has to write a paper about a recent heroic act based off of an interntet article that has happened in the past year. I'm sure someone must know of someone or a situation. Any help would be so appreciated!

Thanks so much for the suggestions! They were great for what she needed, and we will remember the Reader's Digest tip for a story for each month, since she is doing a year long unit on 'Heroes' in school.

Thank you!

She should just google Heroic Acts. I'm sure she can find plenty and doing it herself will help her learn how to research.
