Travis Johnson, When Giving Back is an Adventure Novel Eight Principles Voices
-
- Non-Profit
My interview this month is with Travis Johnson–no relation but I’d be delighted to claim him!
Despite numerous obstacles he’s had to surmount, Travis is a successful giver in every sense of that term.
His humble beginnings include 36 moves before graduating high school at 17, 6 states, 5 foster homes, and surviving 2 murder attempts. Although this was very rough, there was always a person, group, or church willing to help him and his family. Now that he’s in a position to give back, he’s made it his mission to “Help the Helpers”.
Travis shares his perspective as the former vice president of Books by Vets; a board member at the S.H.I.N.E. foundation; he’s donated over $30,000; volunteered over 1,500 hours; raised more than $500,000; helped start 6 nonprofits; event coordinator; and published author.
My conversation with Travis is like delving into an adventure novel with giving back as the theme.
