| Introduction | Welp here I am. First of all I am not a writer. Ok remember I said that. The goal of this blog is to communicate a meaningful experience in my life. In correlation with a Kickstarter campaign, I surprised everyone by saying I would undertake the life of a homeless man in downtown Nashville in hopes of better understanding the lives of the people my company hopes to reach. I've read all about it. I've volunteered at all the right places. But being real with myself, I decided the only way to gain true insight was to immerse myself in that life. Hopefully I can share what I learn and feel in a meaningful manner. This is a story I hope people can find interesting. My goal is to invoke change and to validate the importance of sustainable business in combatting social problems such as hunger and homelessness. |
