Overview

Against All Odds: A Journey from Pain to Purpose is the raw and unforgettable true story of Kamar D. Perkins - a boy born into chaos, shaped by storms, and determined to rise. From losing his mother to violence at five years old, to surviving hunger, abuse, and the foster care system, Kamar's early life was marked by pain and struggle. He faced nights on the streets, shared food with a homeless veteran, and endured battles no child should ever face. Yet through every storm came glimmers of light - a great aunt's last dance, a foster mother's embrace, the wisdom of strangers, and the tough love of family who refused to let him quit. Kamar carried those lessons into the U.S. Army, where discipline and grit transformed him into a leader. After retiring from service, he found himself in North Carolina, turning his scars into blueprints for others. From building businesses and nonprofits to advocating for foster youth, veterans, and communities in need, his life became defined not by survival but by impact. This book is more than a memoir. It's a manifesto of resilience, forgiveness, and legacy. It's proof that your past does not define your future, and that even the heaviest storms can forge you into someone capable of changing the world. If you've ever felt broken, forgotten, or told you'll never make it - this story is for you. It will remind you that survival is only the beginning, and that true purpose is found in helping others rise with you
