Publisher's Synopsis
A Voice out of Poverty is a raw and inspiring memoir that shows how hope can be found in the darkest situations, and how 'success' is not just the act of making it through. Rather, it is the act of reaching back to bring others with you. As a young girl, Jillian Haslam saved a life. Herself tiny and aching from malnutrition, she stood for hours at a tea shop, begging for a ladle of milk to try and prevent her new-born sister from dying of starvation. This tenacious act was the first glimmer of a lifelong drive to empower others to rise from adversity. Now a renowned humanitarian and motivational speaker, Jillian Haslam shares her astonishing story to light the way for people to realise that their destiny is greater than their circumstances.
