We think this sums up every social entrepreneur out there, including our very own CEO, Joy Foster.

They’re the peeps who spot a social problem and then go out and create a business to solve it. 👊 Their mission is fuelled by a passion for making an impact, changing lives for the better with an idea that makes money AND does good.
