Success was not all Anthony Rossi found in America.At the age of 21, Anthony T. Rossi saw the Statue of Liberty for the first time as his ship entered New York harbor. Though he knew virtually no English, he found a job that very day as a machinist's assistant. Within a few years he bought a grocery store, then a farm, a cafeteria and then a large restaurant. Finally, in 1947 he founded Tropicana Products, Inc., which under his leadership became the largest fresh-chilled orange juice company in the world.Success was not all Rossi found in America. He also found a vibrant faith in God that touched his business and personal dealings daily. Eventually he established the Aurora Foundation that has funded Christian educational institutions, Christian missions and other charities.How did an immigrant from Italy with no formal education revolutionize the way fresh orange juice was transported from Florida to the rest of the country? What prepared him to be not only the giant of his industry but also an evangelist, church planter and leader in Christian missions?Here is the inspiring story of a man who stands as a model of energy, creativity and hope.
