There are people contributed to the society in many ways and had an impact on others' lives. They do not wear cap or fly into the sky in a split of seconds, but they are equally heroic as the comic book heroes that we know today. Anyone can make a difference in the world if they have the courage to pursue what they believe. They learn about a social problem and equip the passion to solve it creatively, plain and simple.
Marvel Entertainment introduced "Marvel's Hero Project" in D23 Expo, a 20-episode series that shares the story of remarkable youngsters who are making positive changes in their own communities across the America. These inspiring kids have dedicated their lives to selfless acts of bravery and kindness. Marvel takes the opportunity to celebrate them as the true Super Heroes they are by welcoming them into Marvel's Hero Project.
“There’s so much of what Marvel is, what it stands for. These kids are changing the world in simple ways. Doing great work, and not letting their age be a deterrent," - "Marvel's Hero Project" executive producer Sana Amanat
"Taking the story of a normal kid who is living their life and now having them face these hurdles. That’s what we do. We find out what all these kids’ powers are.” - "Marvel's Hero Project" producer Stephen Wacker
Hailey helps loved ones with Alzheimer's to make connections with a young boy through puzzles. Hailey also grows an urban garden to feed the hungry despite his own family's financial hardships. Sarah Amos, series producer shared on the panel,

Steve Wacker explained, "Marvel Comics is the heart of what we do, and to see yourself on one of those covers is truly one of the coolest surprise for these kids." And viewers can expect some very special guests surprising them as well. Sana Amanat added, "They are truly Marvel Super Heroes now, and they deserve to be."
The series is a first unscripted non-fiction by Marvel New Media. The series will premiere with the launch of Disney+ on Tuesday, November 12. The remaining episodes will be released weekly on Fridays, starting with Episode 2 on Friday, November 15.
