Everyday heroes : 50 Americans changing the world one nonprofit at a time / photographs by Paul Mobley ; text by Katrina Fried ; foreword by Arianna Huffington ; designed by Gregory Wakabayashi.
Two years ago, photographer Paul Mobley and author and editor Katrina Fried set our to find fifty Americans who had made it their business to improve the lives of others. The result is this groundbreaking book profiling some of American's leading social entrepreneurs whose energy and nonprofit organizations have changed the lives of millions around the world, very often one at a time. From activists who have rallied the support of hundreds of volunteers to bring such necessities as clean drinking water, economic support, and urgent medical care to developing nations, to educational leaders who are using their gifts to elevate the opportunities of the poor and disadvantaged, to crusaders of equal rights and women's advocacy, these are remarkable everyday citizens.--
