Do Not Discard
Do Not Discard: The Story of Sam | Marlene Byrne
1 post
Who teaches us to dream? Do we just dream instinctively unless the privilege is taken away?For Sam, it never seemed possible. When you begin your life thrown in the garbage, discovered as an infant wrapped in a blue blanket amidst the trash of a public dump, you do not have a strong foundation for dreams. Sam not only conquers his life situation but rises above the conflict, lost love, and personal fear to dream.Sam's real-life story takes him from the garbage to a family to an orphanage to the streets of El Salvador to Chicago. During his journey, he meets unusual influencers who help him escape poverty and reach his potential. All his achievements are supported by people and organizations such as NPH and Shriners - devoted to changing lives. His story proves their impact matters. Sam's journey reminds each of us of the importance of dreaming big. Giving up is perhaps the greatest tragedy of all.
