About this ebook
- 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 don’t feel they can because they aren’t 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 don’t 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.
- Partnerships: As an expert in digital marketing, the author will parlay his good contacts and strong partnerships with the media, corporations, and in the non-profit sector into solid support for the book. 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.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5In the current present that we are living in, this book is a needed welcome. Even more so during these scary times. As I was reading these stories, I was both happy and emotional. Some tears may have been left behind but they were happy tears of joy. This book features all kinds of stories. There is the one of people banding together to help purchase a service dog, or the story of one man who came from nothing to become something. He never forgot where he came from and became "secret santa". Before he died, he shared his story in the hopes that others would continue his legacy of "secret santa". Today, there are thousands of "secret santas" all over the world. There is the story of a little boy who required a brain surgery thus leaving the little boy to miss out on Halloween. HIs parents sent invites to family, friends, and neighbors to participate in an early Halloween. Every house on the block was lit up that night. It is stories like the above and more that will have readers believing in the good nature of human kind. For every bad story in the news, there are good ones as well. It can be easy to forget the good ones are the bad ones may get the spotlight. Yet, with the pandemic we are currently facing, we are reading tons of stories of kindness. One small act can make the difference.
