Our mission is to provide jobs and
prevent homelessness.
Our idea has led to the housing of former street people and spawned a
myriad of imitators worldwide. Street News is the world's oldest
active motivational newspaper. We supply 30 papers as a start up.
Afterwards, they can purchase papers for 35 cents each. Street News is
the Soul, Spirit 'n Voice of the Street.
Street News
vendors are homeless people except a few of them. We do not operate
any handout programs using public or private funds. When you buy the
Newspaper for $1.25, vendors earn 90 cents in commission, the
remaining 35 cents helps pay some of Street News's overhead. We help
the homeless (AKA) have-nots by producing a paper they can sell. We
supply 30 papers free as a start-up for beginners. Later those
beginners can purchase the papers for 35 cents each. This method has
provided income for some unemployed and homeless people.
