The team at Streat (http://streat.com.au/about) is doing some
awesome work in helping homeless people in gaining employment and skills via
their street cafe cart services in Melbourne whilst serving those more
fortunate delicious food!
They are “Stopping homelessness the
delicious way”.
We at Homefulness think that this is a great initiative in taking consumers wants for coffee and other café delivered food products, harnessing this demand and using the financial gain derived from operating this type of service for the purpose of helping our passion, eradicating homelessness.
It really makes you think, what other
things that we consume so regularly that you take for granted, how can we help
this and other causes via harnessing the power of business?
Like, maybe, Social lotteries in our
post titled “Talk is cheap, let’s gamble!’
Taking the things that we take for
granted and using them for socially responsible aims, really converting them
from the mundane organization, to ones that will help make this world a better
place.

Streat is a fantastic organisation. Perhaps Homefulness could work with streats and sell lottery tickets from there food vans?
ReplyDeleteLike the partnership idea Michael, would be interesting to see if Streat would be willing to tread the fine line that we intend to as well
