BOOK BASED ON THE LIFE OF...
George DeMartino
George DeMartino, podcaster and now author, will be the first to tell you about his two accomplished boys, shortly followed by a brief anecdote about always pushing himself and others to achieve their dreams. It’s a sort of mantra for George, that you can achieve your dreams if you just believe in what you’re doing and push to accomplish your goals no matter the obstacles.
This is the passion he instilled in his two sons and all those that surround him. All of this has led him to the publication of this book where sharing his stories and those of others will hopefully serve to motivate and inspire you to Dream, Believe on your path to following your dreams.

BE A PART OF SOMETHING GREAT....
Book Funding Project
We are raising $75k to produce and market this inspiring children’s book. This will be the only book of its type on the market for children. Your support will help to inspire children to achieve their dreams. 98% of adults never achieve a dream or goal they have in their lifetime. My hope is that by sharing this book with their children. They too will be inspired. When I realized the potential of our story to inspire others. I started a podcast dreambelievepodcast.com. Where I inspire listeners through my stories and those of others to achieve their dreams and goals. The podcast has done very well and we are overwhelmed with listeners wanting to share their stories. The potential of this story is unlimited. I’m so proud to have an opportunity to share this story and make dreams come true. Your support will make all of this possible. With your donation I will keep you updated on the developments of the book with illustrations and inspiring content.
