People who were at one time contributing members of society are now living on the streets. They are prisoners of a lifestyle that causes isolation, hopelessness, despair and humiliation. For some, committing suicide seems to be the only way out. For others, a physical ailment that is left untreated or a sub-freezing night without shelter takes their lives.

Through Project Hope’s endeavors, approximately 3,000 copies of Maximizing Me will be donated to homeless shelters and Youth organizations across the nation as a way to spread the message that every person possesses the power within themselves to change their own destiny.

By recognizing one’s individual strengths as well as weaknesses and striving to develop those with the aid of the lessons contained in his book, Mr. Cunningham challenges his readers to manifest their highest self, their maximum capability. Along the way, he provides personal insights and shares stories of both his own trials and successes, all the while reflecting on the basic changes necessary to overcome adversity and find the lesson in every loss or failure. By providing these books to those who can most benefit from them, Cunningham hopes to cultivate their drive and desire to make the journey to self-empowerment.
