Great heroes have existed throughout time. Legends exist in every culture about great heroes who have fought against poverty and hunger for poor people. Many of the legends are based on fact and many have to do with the religious beliefs of the people. Although some legends are based on conquest, the enduring heroes are those who helped to free people from poverty and hunger.
In addition to legends, real people have changed the course of history and fought human suffering and hunger in all countries of the world. Many of these people made tremendous personal sacrifices in their efforts to help their fellow humans.
The qualities of a real hero are moral strength, courage and the willingness to help others.
