Saul is a philanthropist, photojournalist, and speaker recognized for his social impact projects. Saul spent three months walking, hitchhiking, and sleeping on the ground and in hiding places. His journey began in Ecuador and ended in Charlotte, North Carolina. In three months, he walked 5,328 miles through ten countries and nine border crossings to document how grueling and dangerous the journey of immigrants to the United States can be and to raise money for an elementary school in Atencingo, Mexico. His work has been featured on National Public Radio, MSNBC, TEDX, and as a keynote speaker for dozens of universities, inspiring audiences and helping people realize the capacity of their immense human potential given times of extreme adversity.
