About the Author

Donald E. Rodman is a highly successful Ford dealer in Foxboro, Massachusetts, but he has been just as accomplished in his second vocation giving back. Don has dozens of charitable affiliations too numerous to list here and serves on the boards of many, including Catholic Charities of Boston and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Dorchester. Don is especially drawn to organizations, like his own Rodman for Kids, that not only provide children with their most basic needs, but surpass them, by including experiences one might want for their own child like going to Disney World or a live Broadway in Boston show. While Don did not finish high school, he has four honorary doctoral degrees from area colleges and was knighted by Pope John Paul II, for his charitable deeds. His late wife, Marilyn Rodman, was also a philanthropist and a bright light in Don s large, loving family of five sons, nine grandchildren and three great grandsons.
