OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Nov. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Darol Rodrock, author of Out of the Shadow: I Can and I Will, was a child left behind.  Years later, this abandoned boy grew up to be an ambitious businessman and passionate philanthropist founding one of the most successful residential development companies in the Midwest.  All proceeds from the book go to the Darol Rodrock Foundation to support foster youth with personal and professional development.

"This book is for anyone who's looking for real and lasting hope," says author and real estate developer, Darol Rodrock.  "No matter who you are, what your past was, or what you're going through now, I want to inspire you with this thought: You can overcome anything life brings."

Darol's story is the constant reminder that through perseverance anything is possible.  Abuse, poverty and loneliness raised him.  Shuffled in and out of orphanages and foster homes, Darol remembers vividly what it was like to be a child in need – nowhere to go, and no one to call for help.  Darol's mission now and that of his foundation is to develop the full potential of youth aging out of foster care in a compassionate and positive learning community for a lifetime of meaningful relationships, work and service.

Here's what business leaders are saying about Out of the Shadow: I Can and I Will.

• "Every time I hear Darol speak or spend time with him, I'm inspired to give more of myself to others. Now we're all blessed with the opportunity to read his inspirational story." – Dayton Moore, General Manager of the Kansas City Royals and Founder of the "C" You in the Major Leagues Foundation
• "I invite you, encourage you, challenge you to read this book and be inspired by "Little Darol," who with his grit, determination, and sheer creative courage brings you to the brilliant conclusion that anyone can be anything, can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and, most importantly, survive and thrive!" – Judy Johns, Owner of Keller Williams Realty Partner
• "No matter what your circumstances are, Darol offers inspiration, insight, and a unique viewpoint that shines brightly into even the darkest of shadows." – Bobbi Jo Reed, Executive Director at the Healing House

Darol was slow to share his story.  For years his friends and family encouraged him to share his incredible journey to help others find hope and encouragement.  Having come to a place in his life and an understanding of his childhood, he now faced the challenge of putting pen to paper to share his story with the world.  Read more about Darol Rodrock, his foundation, and life changing story at www.darolrodrockfoundation.org.
