No matter your drink of preference, as the weekend is just winding down and summer is warming up, these social enterprises for winos ask you to let your hair down. A lot of social innovation and social business asks you to consider some really difficult and profound, though necessary, questions. If you work in the sphere, the continuous reality of climate change and social problems makes it even more important to get up in the morning and do a job well done.
Still, some organizations, like these social enterprises for winos, embrace a mood of celebration despite their social and environmental mission, which in this case is often organic offerings, fair trade certifications and community-oriented business models.
