Andrew Fumento
Andrew Fumento is a copywriter in the advertising and entertainment industries.
Andrew has been a writer as long as he can remember – his dad taught him to walk by
having him hold on to a pen instead of his finger. His dad let go of the pen, and Andrew kept
walking. He’s had a pen in his hand ever since!
Andrew also has a lifelong love of advertising. He wrote his first “commercial,” for Jif
peanut butter, when he was in third grade. He convinced his parents and two thirds of his
friends’ parents to switch to Jif with his slogan, “Choosy parents choose Jif!” – not a bad
conversion rate for his first ad!
Andrew has produced humorous and compelling creative content for every format, from
billboards and radio spots, to multimedia and social media campaigns for media and
technology companies like Lenovo, Philips Interactive, Sony, Universal, and Warner Bros.
At Warner Home Entertainment, Andrew was a Senior Copywriter – and later, the Director
of Editorial – producing, writing, and editing the content on over 10,000 Warner titles and
on multiple entertainment websites. He also produced special features and online content
and was responsible for innovations in navigational functionality and structure for video
formats including DVD and Blu-Ray.
In 2011, Andrew became the proud father to his wonderful son, George Bailey. Inspired by
Georgie to find ways to make the world a better place for children (and those who used to
be children), Andrew provided free resume and job counseling assistance for more than
400 people.
He also began writing pro bono Public Service Announcements, and publishing daily
#PSAaDay messages on Facebook – helpful bits of info and inspiration, meant to improve
and perhaps even save lives. To quote Martin Luther King Jr., “Life’s most persistent and
urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’”
Andrew is known for writing humor with heart. He is currently writing his first book,
Hero Complex: Solving 99.9% of the World’s Problems… without Help from Superheroes!
(Over 50 Original, Humorous and Not-So-Humorous Public Awareness TV Campaigns).
Andrew is humbled and honored to sit on the Desire to Inspire Foundation’s Board of
Directors.

Dawn has also penned several books, including Be… which imparts an important message about perseverance, purpose and putting kindness out into the world.
Though she’s involved in many projects, Dawn’s most proud of her role as a mom to two daughters. Nurturing their hearts and spirits drives a deep desire to do the same for children everywhere. And Dawn is doing exactly that through Desire to Inspire and purposeful trips around the world providing much-needed assistance in the form of clean water, education, clothing, food, books and love. It was after her first trip to Africa that Dawn fell in love with the community there and saw for the first time what she wanted her life’s work to be.
Today the foundation is in the process of building sustainability centers that will combine real world training with transformational life coaching principles to help people discover and use their talents to support themselves, their families, and communities.
Prior to following her passion to improve the world, Dawn held a number of leadership positions. She served as PTA President, NCL-LA Founder Chapter President, Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA), Big Sister, Public Works Commissioner for the City of La Canada Flintridge, and many others. She attended Cornell University and earned certification in Animal Assisted Therapies from Harcum College.
Dawn recently received an Honorary Doctorate in Humanitarianism from the Global International Alliance. She is the 2021 Women of Achievement Ms. Elite Southern California titleholder and was recently appointed as Chaplain of the USA Ladies of All Nations International (LOANI) group for California. Through each experience, she has learned a great deal about leadership and the importance of inspiring people to greatness.
