The Character Approved Awards
Posted By Samuel Richard on January 30th, 2009
Sweet. I love it when for-profit companies out there begin think a little bit like a nonprofit. Maybe making money for making-money’s sake isn’t the real bottom line? Just throwing it out there. Kudos to the the USA Network for recognizing a few social innovators. Maybe I’ll start watching Monk again. You can find the whole list here, but these are my favorites:
Charles Best, Founder of DonorsChoose.org (Check out that sweet ‘stache!)
Shepard Fairey, Street Artist
Jimmy Wales, Founder of Wikipedia
Lupe Fiasco, Rapper
Have a great weekend! See you on the other side of a Cardinals Super Bowl victory…
Cheers,
Sam

I liked it. I’ve read about the guy who owns Obey before and liked his style and approach. Thanks for a good post!
