The following stories showcase the type of content we're looking for.

The story should include links to related outside content and public domain images and/or images approved by the hero. Stories should also include an embedded video when applicable.

Interns may also create and/or post social media graphics, edit incoming stories, proofread older content, cover MY HERO activities and events in press releases and social media outreach. 

Step 1: Type in the hero's name, and select "Images."

Then select "Tools."

Then click "Usage Rights."

From the dropdown menu, choose "Creative Commons licenses."

You are free to use any images from that selection. Please give photo credit to the photographer, and include "creative commons" or "public domain" in the credit, if it's not already there.
