Where Brave Hearts Grow
A social impact initiative by Fifth Wonder —
bringing emotional wellness, courage-building experiences,
and story-fueled literacy programs to classrooms
across the nation.
We help children unlock bravery, build resilience,
and reconnect with their inner strength
one unforgettable story at a time.
ABOUT PROJECT
WONDERLY
Project Wonderly is the social impact division
of Fifth Wonder, created to deliver emotional
strength, story-driven healing, and lasting hope
to the children who need it most.
Rooted in the belief that every child deserves
tools to rise, we combine storytelling, author visits,
and hands-on creative activities — including a
groundbreaking augmented reality app —
to help students unpack emotions, build resilience,
and reconnect with their sense of courage.
From classrooms to foster systems, Project Wonderly
is reaching communities that are too often
overlooked — one brave story at a time.
What is Project Wonderly?
OUR FLAGSHIP PROGRAM
A DAY TO BE BRAVE
Empowering Children with Courage, Literacy & Resilience
A Day to Be Brave is a nationally celebrated school visit program for K–5 students.
Blending storytelling, emotional wellness, and creative expression into one unforgettable day of courage.
Through a live author experience, interactive storytelling, and hands-on tools, students learn to:
• Reframe their worries
• Embrace their challenges
• Build brave habits that last long after the session ends
The program is turnkey and scalable — designed to reach entire school districts in a single day with minimal disruption to learning.
OUR REACH
Over 100,000 students across 26 states have already experienced A Day to Be Brave — from general education classrooms to trauma-impacted schools and foster care systems.
In partnership with the Georgia Department of Human Services, we reached 5,000 foster children with personalized books and emotional wellness kits.
OUR VISION
To reach 1 million students with programs that heal, uplift, and equip — using books, storytelling, and brave-hearted curriculum to spark transformation.
One book, one story, one brave day at a time.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Every school visit includes:
• A live, nationally celebrated author experience
• A copy of The Bravest Worrier for every student — with optional sponsor logo printed inside
• Braveheart Discovery Kits filled with emotional growth tools
• Reusable character-building curriculum to reinforce the positive message all year long
Want to see how the full experience could work in your district?
