Receive Through Giving with Stephen Clarke

Did you know that one in every five children in Canada and one in every six children in the US go to school hungry? This is unbelievable! We know most organizations focus their attention on developing countries and live behind the developed countries where we have people suffering. Stephen and his wife have been feeding children in Africa for the last 15 years, and when they learned developed countries were suffering too, they decided to come up with a model where everybody wins. Stephen's business is called RTG (Receiving through Giving). Listen in as Stephen shares the model they came up with for millennials and the program that is helping many businesses get their employees to engage more. How does Stephen's Millennials Model Work? The model seeks to address three things, namely: Transparency, they want to know where their money's going  The impact it is having  What is in this for you The first thing Stephen and his wife did was declare themselves a for-profit social enterprise. The next thing they did was bring a team together, and they formulated high-quality food, non-GMO, and organic food. This was inspired by the fact that we were a little disturbed to see that some of the food that people were getting was not very good nutritional value, and it wasn't against the table, but it wasn't going to promote their health positively. So we wanted to make sure it was good quality food. So that was the first thing.  The next thing they did was availing food to the focus groups and later introducing the focus group-buying food from them at $39.70 for 30 meals; then they would ship them to our charity partners in the focus group's names members. To spice things up, Stephen and the team decided to bring in the discount app to help the millennials get 15% off every time they purchased from their vendors and still get a tax receipt.  The last piece was made to make a disruption in the giving space a positive one. The outcome is they give back roughly $3 of every 3970. They have made it mandatory to give that back to other causes. The main agenda of this model is to help feed more people. How Solopreneurs Can Apply Stephen's Model One of the big things happening right now is coaches, consultants, and stuff like going to companies proposing the RTG program. The program is a fantastic way in which you're going to engage your employees; you're going to do all this kind of stuff at an affordable price point. The program creates room for employees to engage, and regardless of where they are.  The model encompasses all 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). With these options, every employee gets to choose what they want instead of letting the company decide.   Listen in to learn more. Stephen's Superpower Stephen has an unshakable belief. He believes in himself and his abilities. For instance, when he was a hockey player, he wasn't the smartest neither the biggest, but they made it through.

"Get to know this demographic. Because they think differently, they act differently. They're the future of our world. You have to understand them better." "It's never what happens to us in life. It's how we react to it." "Having a mentor or coach and all these things, it just is the best way to reach some specific goals because they have already been there." "It's never going to happen as fast as we want it to happen no matter what."
