Ken Budd’s
The Voluntourist
is a remarkable memoir about losing your father, accepting your fate, and finding your destiny by volunteering around the world for numerous worthy causes: Hurricane Katrina disaster relief in New Orleans, helping special needs children in China, studying climate change in Ecuador, lending a hand—and a heart—at a Palestinian refugee camp in the Middle East, to name but a few. Ken's emotional journey is as inspiring and affecting as those chronicled in
Little Princes
and
Three Cups of Tea
. At once a true story of powerful family bonds, of sacrifice, of self-discovery,
is an all-too-human, real-life hero whom you will not soon forget.
