As a first-time author, Donald hopes to inspire others to be post-pandemic leaders and mentors. 

His book provides a model of practical applications and proven strategies to engage the next generation of Game Changers. UCF's goal has been to "Change lives in the community—one student at a time" by empowering youth to gain self-confidence and become productive community contributors. This is accomplished by engaging them, their families, and the community through education, social responsibility, Christian fellowship, and youth enrichment activities. The power of one may be strong, but the power of many is unstoppable. 

Remarkable things happen when people care!  The goal is to work together to change and impact communities, the nation, and the world by mentoring youth and supporting families. Donald understands that when a community works together, nothing can stop them from being successful—saving one youth at a time.
