Little Hero Lab is a nonprofit organization founded by Tigran Arakelyan with a mission to empower children through safety education, confidence-building, and real-life emergency preparedness.
Created with the belief that every child can be a hero, Little Hero Lab teaches kids how to stay calm, think clearly, and take action when it matters most. Our programs focus on hands-on learning, teamwork, and practical skills that children can use in everyday life.
We are proud to be supported by a passionate leadership team made up of Adonis Khodaverdy, Nare Mkhitaryan, Kelin Minasian, Elia Kappa, Ani Gevorkyan and Matthew Bedrosian, who share the same vision of creating safer, more prepared communities through education.
Our mission is to educate and empower children with essential life-saving skills, safety awareness, and confidence to act in emergencies.
We aim to create a generation that feels prepared — not afraid — when faced with challenging situations.
We envision a world where every child feels confident helping others and knows how to respond in moments that matter most.
Through hands-on learning, compassion, and leadership, Little Hero Lab works to make safety education accessible, engaging, and impactful for all children.
At Little Hero Lab, we use three carefully developed age-based protocols designed to meet children where they are developmentally. Each program builds confidence, safety awareness, and real-life emergency skills in a way that feels engaging, clear, and empowering.
