Restored Faith

This book and DVD restored my faith in the next generation of young people who care about world peace and other serious issues. The grassroots nature of this movement combined with the nobel prize winners for a very positive, hopeful look at the future of our world - if people just get involved. I am so proud that my niece is involved and hope by making their story available, others will be inspired to so something.
