people who make donations. WE CAN BE HEROES has been very successful exceeding its initial goal of raising $50,000 in

the services these charities can provide to those in need so check out their website www.indiegogo.com/projects/dc-entertainment-we-can-be-heroes because there are just a few days left to participate.
