Description for Sales People Philanthropic: The author is donating all royalties to charity, a living demonstration of the values of kindness and generosity that infuse the stories in the book. Healing: Against the backdrop of a deeply divided society in which civility has gone by the wayside, these inspiring true stories are a healing tonic that will bring groups and individuals together and encourage a proliferation of good works in the real world. Empowering: In his work with non-profits, author Brad Aronson often hears from people who want to make a difference but dont feel they can because they arent able to contribute on a grand scale. This book reminds us that the essence of human kindness is found in the small gestures one individual makes to another. Acts of charity dont need to be in the news to make a huge impact. Resourceful: As readers become inspired by the stories and real-life examples of kindness shared in the book, they will feel moved to follow suit with their own outreach and acts of generosity. This book provides a wealth of actionable information for readers to amplify their impact. It also identifies outstanding non-profit organizations who can help readers channels their efforts.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of America and Hopeworks will partner in promoting the book--Aronson has served on the boards of both of these organizations.
