Start Something That Matters

One of my favorite ideas was Good Spread Peanut Butter. They created something that you don't have to rely on involvement for. Everyone loves peanut butter; it's a practically a basic kitchen necessity. So when people buy this peanut butter they're giving back to people in need, whether that's their intention or not. It's not that I think people would ever be opposed to helping those in need, just that this makes it easier for people to do so.


Momba was one that appealed to me because it's something that would be useful to me. I'm not in college yet but even as a high schooler I think it's a great idea. Having those random things that you'd never think to by during your normal trip to the store available at the ready like snacks in a vending machine would be great. Not only on college campuses, but in the work setting as well. Sometimes we just don't have the ability to make a quick run to the convenience store.

I have kind of mixed feelings about Half 4 the Hungry. I think the concept is great. It could help with obesity in America, while eliminating wasted leftovers and feeding those who need it. The issue is that I don't think it's realistically possible. Americans simply love food too much. The obese people the intention is to help wouldn't be the ones giving up half their meal. Plus there's no way for the person giving up their meal to actually see how its helping. The concept is great but I think there's a few kinks that need to be worked out.
