Readers will be heartbroken by the pain and truly inspired by the strength and resiliency of these kids who have overcome so much. This book is a primer on what can happen when nonprofits work well, and a hard look at the many societal issues that still need to be addressed to keep our children safe."

Part history, part biography, and part testimony of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Oklahoma County...For those interested in reading about the history of one of the leading youth organizations in the country and the dedicated people who pour their hearts into it, there is much to enjoy here. While Edwards Sutter didn’t intend for this to be a self-help book, readers may be inspired to donate their time or money to their own communities by some of the words of volunteer Suzanne Breedlove: 'There is more need for Boys & Girls Clubs now than ever in history….Everybody has some time to pour into someone else’s life and to see how far just a little bit of attention and energy goes.'
