Success by Design: Mastering the Business of Interior Design

Send Katie a Text Message!!

What exactly is corporate social responsibility? Ever heard of Humble Design? This organization furnishes and decorates up to 13 homes each week in five cities across the country. Back in 2009, Treger Strasberg created a nonprofit and established a system that helps thousands of veterans, women, children, and families stop the revolving door of homelessness. The belief is simple: individuals emerging from homelessness deserve to come home each day to a clean, friendly, and dignified home.

How does the 99% success rate of Humble Design really impact a family and a community? I can’t think of a more beautiful way to celebrate the day after Thanksgiving than by realizing we are all so incredibly blessed. And the responsibility and privilege that comes with that blessing is giving back to others through corporate social responsibility. Hear all that and more in today’s conversation!
In this episode, you will be able to:

1. Learn how Humble Design came to be and how they support those exiting homelessness.
2. Discover ways you can give back to your local community.
3. Uncover the benefits of corporate social responsibility—for your firm, yourself, & those in need.
