Charities Have Been Trying to Fix Homelessness for Decades. This Founder Did It Differently
Most of us picture homelessness as something visible. A person on the street. A cardboard sign. But the most common form is invisible, people working full-time who simply cannot afford rent.

How IIS Saved a Piece of the Amazon in a Race Against Time
A few months ago, a story reached us that shook us to the core. A vast, living piece of the Amazon rainforest, home to two Indigenous tribes , countless species, and one of Earth’s most vital carbon sinks was in the process of being sold .
