I had heard about him in the San Jose Community and the extraordinary work he was doing. His commitment to foster care children and others in need was immediately evident. Our missions overlapped and it was important for me to know that and Andre wanted to be sure we both understood it. It was a very important conversation for me. It awakened me to  the need for the University to embrace and support these young people after they were 18. Over the years Andre and I worked on community projects together and I will always respect his uncommon energy and belief in giving back. The book is an important read for anyone and everyone who cares about our society's future.  Andre has devoted his life to others. He is a what my father would call...
