EP 31: Pulling Each Other Along - Interview with Dave Clark and Doug Cornfield
An amazing interview with Doug Cornfield and Dave Clark, author & inspiration for the books “A Pound of Kindness” and “Pulling Each Other Along”
A Pound of Kindness is a true story from the childhood of Dave Clark, the only professional baseball player to pitch from crutches, A National Hero of Sports winner, and an advocate for children with differing abilities. Having worked with Dave for a number of years through their Disability, Dream, and Do sports events, Doug J. Cornfield wrote A Pound of Kindness to share with children and parents alike the enduring power of a simple, thoughtful act. What began as a Kickstarter is now a children’s picture book and a movement to empower children of differing abilities through sports and camps.
"You may never know the weight that a small act of kindness can have on a person's life" ~ Dave Clark
Some of you may not know about Dave Clark's story of drive and inspiration. It’s a story about a man who dreamed and did his way through what was expected to be a life of impossibility and created a reality beyond his dreams.
Pulling Each Other Along honors the unwitting acts of kindness that change lives and give the gift of hope and possibility.
When Dave Clark was in 1st grade a boy named Ernie Pound changed his life forever when he brought his Red Radio Flyer Wagon to school with the sole purpose of giving Dave a ride to the local fire station for a field trip. 50 years later Dave got to thank him.
Today Clark, along with his foundation — Dave Clark Foundation, Ltd. — is doing everything he can to expand awareness to over fifty million Americans living with disabilities by highlighting their potential and accomplishments.
