What is an unsung hero?
Unsung heroes are the real heroes of the world. They make sacrifices to live and work and help other people without expecting anything in return. Unsung heroes don’t demand special attention or recognition for their great work, dedication and great deeds. facebook.com/LowellMilkenCenter
An unsung hero can be defined as an extraordinary act done by an individual for which they do not get the credit and recognition that they deserve. They are average people just like you and me who make great contributions to society but their bravery is either ignored or unacknowledged by the media and the government because they are not considered news worthy or events that make the politicians look good. For example, someone who tries to make a change in the lives of the poor and needy is ignored and remains unknown, as we are too busy with our lives to worry about the misery of the less fortunate amongst us.
