Social Good Under the Radar
In preparation for Ideation Conference in May 2012 (Details TBA), our team is looking for some individuals, organizations and/or businesses that are “under the radar” that are making impact in the area of social good or social entrepreneurialism. We’d like to highlight them at next year’s event.
If you know of any individuals or groups that we should be aware of, please let me know by leaving a comment below. I’m always open to learning more about the works of others!
Many thanks in advance.

Jonathan was with us the first year… good recommendation nonetheless 🙂
Definitely Shay and Shane at @project5050 if others caught and joined with their vision it would revolutionize this country. I’ve gotten to hang with her a bit here in NYC and am looking forward to them coming back this way. She has definitely spurred me to action in support of the homeless in my community; showing that even with my limited resources and crazy schedule there is something I can do.
Thanks for the recommendation Melissa! Will definitely check them out.
Charles,
I found you on Linked in. Apparently you know Skye Jethani, Dawn Nicole Baldwin and Kent Shaffer. They are all friends.
Anyway, your projects and company look intriguing and I though I would send you recommendation for a social good organization out here in the Chicago area. The company is called I Have a Bean and they are a premium coffee roaster. They hire ex-offenders in order to get them job skills and then help them get back into the workforce.

Charles,
Check out Project: Living Well. They engage people with those in need, face to face. One of their main global focuses is the water crisis. Check out some of their pics…
