Empowering New Beginnings

Hero To Be is a multi-award-winning non-profit organization based in Stockholm, committed to enhancing the well-being, resilience, and integration of children and families from immigrant and refugee backgrounds.

Since our inception in 2015, we have positively transformed the lives of over 62,242 individuals across Sweden and Europe through our innovative psychosocial support programs.

Leveraging culturally-adaptive narratives, we redefine their journey, making them the heroes of their own stories.
