Something About Me and My Book:

Tom Tuohy is an attorney, author, founder and CEO of CBA, LLC and founder of Dreams for Kids, Inc.

The son of a single parent, Tom founded the nonprofit Dreams for Kids, Inc in 1989.

Youth, sponsored by individuals and local businesses, learn essential entrepreneurship skills as they build social enterprises.
