 Start Something That Matters by Blake Mykoskie

"In summary: there’s lots of bad reasons to start a company. But there’s only one good, legitimate reason, and I think you know what it is: it’s to change the world." 

                                                                                                Phil Libin, CEO, Evernote


Blake Mykoskie is the founder of TOMS Shoes. Via TOMS' One for One program, every pair of shoes that is purchased is matched with a pair that is then donated to a child in need, somewhere in the world.

TOMS exemplifies how coporate social responsibility tempered with social justice creates social entrepreneurship.

Click the tabs on this guide to find out more about social entrepreneurship, humanitarianism's role in your profession, and the TOMS-style business model.
