The Big Issue

The Big Issue, founded in 1991, is a social enterprise that focuses on providing a means for homeless and vulnerably housed individuals to earn a legitimate income by selling its street newspaper. The organization operates on a self-help model, where vendors buy the magazine for half the cover price and sell it to the public, keeping the profits. This approach empowers individuals to work their way out of poverty and reintegrate into society.
