In this inspiring episode of the Revenue Builders podcast, our
hosts John McMahon and John Kaplan talk to the Founder of
Samaritan's Feet International, Manny Ohonme. Manny regales us
with his life story of hope, faith, and selfless leadership that
all started with a pair of shoes. Once a poor kid selling water
and soda in Lagos, Nigeria, Manny worked hard to earn a
basketball scholarship that became his ticket to the US. There,
he devoted himself to his studies and eventually led a successful
career in tech sales. Pursuing a search for greater purpose,
Manny left his corporate career to establish a non-profit that
would change the lives of millions around the world, one pair of
shoes at a time.

QUOTES

Manny on servant leadership: "From CEOs to the president
of companies to presidents of countries humble themselves to wash
these people's feet. Let the greatest among you first be a
servant. That's the power that Samaritan's Feet is all about."

How a pair of shoes can change someone's life, says Manny:
"We are able to bring people together to invest and educate those
kids and now you're going to help them rebuild their home and
give them a new job opportunity all began from the gift of a pair
of shoes."

Manny's message to people experiencing hardships: "Keep
that dreaming part of you. Don't forget to keep dreaming. Because
the situation gets so bad sometimes, they stop and forget to
dream."
