RE: Social Entrepreneurship: Finding Your Passion and Choosing a Cause
I love this post Ivy! I have often thought what I would do if given enough resources and time to not work for a living.
I remember running my own restaurant then and I had always wanted to do a buy a meal for someone else.
I have always been partial to people who are starving because it is one of the most basic things that a person should have because it makes all the difference in having a full belly.
I was handling the corporate social responsibilty of one company before and they were donating 10% of their profits to abused women and children and it was awesome.
I asked the owner why she did it and she said because at one point she was a victim as well so we often chose the cause we resonate with.
I like the story about your friend and sometimes we have to choose. We can't have our cake and eat it too.
Thank you, Mave! You are incredible :)
I love providing food to others because I, also, know what its like to go hungry. We do tend to use our own life experiences to fuel our desires for change. I love your heart and how kind you are to others, please don't ever change that about yourself.
Social responsibility should be part of every business plan if you ask me but its sadly lacking in most businesses at this point in time.
My friend does have to choose but only she can make the choice and she knows it.
Thank you, Mave!
