As of June 30, 2011, over 16,000 votes were received from the general public for these projects, in addition to over 17,500 views of the project videos on YouTube™.

The preliminary contest results for the competitions ended June 30, 2011, are shown on the left side of this page.  Only eligible votes will be counted.  Any duplicate votes from multiple email addresses will be eliminated, at the discretion of True Hero, Inc.  See Contest Rules for a description and definition of eligible votes.  Final results will be published in September 2011.

Thank you for participating in our second competition.  Thanks to you, truehero.org has been a big success in its third year, receiving significant recognition, and thus enabling us to attract donations and sponsorship support for the next school year.  Also, your community service projects are included in the competition again for the 2011/2012 school year.  The vote counts were re-set to zero as of July 1, 2011, so that you can vote again (once) for your favorite community service project and for as many projects as you like. 

If you are a student volunteer, 
THANK YOU for inspiring optimism, gratitude and a call to service in all of us. 

If you are a faculty advisor,
THANK YOU for your leadership and the gift of your personal time to your students.
