The Power of One: The Unsung Everyday Heroes Rescuing America's Cities

This book uncovers the true stories of fascinating grassroots innovators, from businessmen to teenagers and housewives to the clergy who are tackling crime, welfare dependency, housing shortages and more across America. They’ve given up high-paying jobs, personal lives, and even personal safety to rescue their fellow human beings.

This trend, still much below the radar of the mainstream media, began in the early eighties but has been growing even stronger in the new millennium. A fifty-year stretch of ineffective social programs has motivated citizen heroes to challenge the conventional wisdom and apply a whole new method for addressing societal decay. Their unique innovations are even “civic-franchising” into other communities with the result of saving American taxpayers billions!
 
Debra J. Berg's empirical evidence of this trend lauds 35 founders and their 26 social cures guaranteed to surprise and inspire. Like the small business owner who invented the successful Amber Alert child abduction prevention program and the oil scout who invented Rebuilding Together, now in over 250 locations, the creative ideas keep on coming! Debra also includes insights that will help any nonprofit understand how to replicate their cause, what these innovators did to find sponsors, and how to garner community support.

Can one person really make a difference? Absolutely! This is an encouraging "good news" and informative read for anyone. It's an especially inspirational one for those in the helping professions or already part of a grassroots cause.

 373-page book with photos and includes 25 separate accounts of social entrepreneurs in thirty U.S. cities.
