because I said I would.

We all make promises constantly. ''Yes, I'll be there.'' ''Sure, no problem!'' But do we really mean what we are saying? What is the impact of a broken promise? And what happens to a life when a promise is honored?

Because I said I would is the international social movement at the forefront of shifting how the world views commitment and accountability. With over 9.81 million Promise Cards distributed, this cause has played a unique role in changing lives around the world. Heartwarming, humorous, inspirational, and tragic--these stories will challenge readers to look deep within themselves and consider the importance of the promises they make.
Through a collection of inspiring short stories and concise philosophical chapters, readers will gain the following:

• Practical life lessons from surprisingly raw stories of everyday people with incredible determination
