Description

Book Synopsis
Passionaries’ thirty-five profiles describe leaders of volunteer organizations that are significantly impacting millions of lives. Each story chronicles the personal inspiration behind the organization, the obstacles its creator had to overcome, and lives that have been touched or changed. The success of these heroes is shared with more than twenty million mini-passionary volunteers who donate millions of hours annually—and also create ripples of vision and change. Readers will be touched, moved, and inspired. They will have access to important facts, figures, and contact information, which can encourage their active participation. Often inspired by no more than an impulse or idea, many of these passionaries have been content to work in anonymity.
