Short Summary 

Thank you for taking your time to view this campaign! 

I am Ricky Roberts III.  I am the author of four books, a youth advocate, a speaker, and the founder of YOU ARE VALUED: a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating change one heart at a time by sparking a movement of valuing others through community outreach, involvement, discussion, and inspiration. You can read more about me and YAV on the links below.

GIVE 1 GET 1 is inspired by the young people I have the privilege to work with in group homes, detentions centers, foster care, community centers, shelters, and middle and high schools.  

What I Need & What You Get

I give away as many books as I can to the many youth who ask for them, but it's not enough. I want to give away more books, and I need your help to do so!    

By GIVING to this campaign you will make it possible for me to GIVE at least 100 (I hope even more) copies of YOU, personally signed and delivered by me, to the youth I have the honor to work with. 

"From setting goals, to developing positive thinking habits, to embracing our inherent value, YOU delivers practical, insightful help to young and old alike.  The premise is simple: the answers to your dreams lie within you." - book jacket.

If I raise more than the goal, I will GIVE away as many books as possible to the 1000’s of young people I work with who all stand to benefit from receiving a copy of YOU.

The Impact

As a contributor to GIVE 1 GET 1, you will be putting books into the hands of young people who would not get them otherwise. 

Words from a few young people who have read YOU:

"This book helps me understand the true power inside of myself." 

"I felt like each chapter had something that was helpful and I could actually use some of the information from the book in my life."

"I think that this is one of the best books i've read and I strongly recommend it to anyone who has some struggles or problems in their life."

"I feel that this book made a change in me and no matter what happens I won't back down from what I believe in.  Honestly, I don't like to read either but surprisingly this is a really good book and I enjoyed it."

By GIVING to this campaign, you could change someone's life forever. Not to mention, you will be GETTING your very own signed copy of my latest book Awakening the New You: A Path to Transformation
(or more depending on the perk you pick).  If you just want to GIVE books, there are perks for that, too.

Other Ways You Can Help

I invite you to share the GIVE 1 GET 1 campaign on Facebook and Twitter and to email the link to your friends, family, and colleagues.   

On behalf of the many youth that will be impacted by this cause, I thank you so much for your support!

*** Perks will be sent after the campaign ends. ***
