In 2017, I had the great honor to give a TEDx talk on the three pillars that we at my first social start-up (tip-me.org) implemented for a more fair globalization:
creating transparency: allowing customers to understand who the people are who made their products
direct, effective action: not only enabling people to give back but ensuring 100% of tips end up with workers
building empathy: I’m still connected to workers in Pakistan, Kenia and Vietnam via Whatsapp etc. If they feel like it, they can share the impact tips made in their lives, directly and authentically. Some send us selfies after buying with new school books for their children, medicine for their parents or just regular groceries.
