We Don't Just Give Them A Fish
“Give a man a fish, and you’ll feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, and you’ll feed him for a lifetime.” While sources disagree on the origins of this now-familiar proverb and some paraphrase it differently from others, the point of it still holds true: “the ability to work is of greater benefit than a one-off handout.”*
Our goal at Just.Glass is to go the distance with people in Nashville who have a hard time getting and keeping jobs by giving them the job training, mentorship, and support needed to help them succeed. We RECYCLE to BREAK THE CYCLE of poverty.
And, by subscribing to our recycling services, you do too! You make a real difference in two ways:
You help reduce CO2 emissions.
You help provide employment for the unemployed.
