ordinary people inspiring the world in ways that matter and last beyond 100 years.


The inspiration originates from a young man from Cupertino named Justin Perkins, whose resilience and courage in his fight with cancer inspired his community. Although he lost his battle with cancer in 2008, it is his spirit of helping others that we hope to spread to the rest of the world. The Sandlot Hero is someone you know from your communuity that inspires you. Our goal is to share the stories of the ordinary people that do extraordinary things each and every day; and build/expand the Sandlot Hero Community to support the causes.



"I want to help people after I am gone" ~ Justin Perkins

Someone who does something selfless, instantly, as a given. And seldom talks about it, or downplays it, or never discusses it.
Inspiration to keep making a difference
someone who does something heroic quietly, away from public eyes, away from public scrutiny.
It means staying true to yourself and having the courage to stand up and make your voice heard
he can do something heroic, momentous, something that saves lives - yet no-one knows what he did, or what it took to do it.
One does something, and then carries on with his life as a regular human being, knowing that he has touched a few lives anyway.
perseveres, never quits
High aspirations combined with determination.
Courageous
It means staying connected to what is really important... our community -Steve Dickson
