Show Notes
Privileged people seldom notice the needs of the have-nots and even when they do, they don't know what to do about it or how to solve the problem. Nicholas Marchesi the Co-founder of the Orange Sky is one such person who despite hailing from a privileged position was able to identify the problems of the homeless people. He identified the problem of hygiene standards of the homeless people and the need for a platform for them to connect with people who could help them. The idea that started with two washing machines built inside of a moving van around a town in Australia has evolved into positively connecting communities.
