The Big Issue

The Big Issue is a nonprofit organization that provides homeless and vulnerably housed individuals with the opportunity to earn an income by selling a magazine of the same name. Vendors buy the magazine for a reduced price and then sell it at the full price, keeping the profits. This approach empowers them to gain financial independence while also raising awareness about homelessness. The Big Issue aims to create lasting positive change by addressing the root causes of poverty and encouraging public engagement with social issues.
