Social-Mission Factory in China

[hou777]

Hi there,

I am in business field for 10 years...but I quited my job two years ago and started my own company.

After I know more about Social Enterprise, I wish I can have a Social-Mission Factory in Southern part of China. Imagine all the employees are with a good attitude and they are, perhaps homeless people in the street, even orphans who are adults.

My friends critized me that I am dreaming...but I believe that in the 21st century, only a business with a social mission can sustain, for another 50 years.

What's a social mission factory?

In my experience, the beggars I usually see about town do so because they make quite a bit of money from it. Not all, but some do. If they're honest enough to buy children from the countryside in order to look more pathetic, then they should be a real asset to your factory!

I'm interested in knowing more, but I think your average peasant with a strong work ethic would be better suited for any work you might be offering.

Social Mission Factory - A manufacturing business that can employ people who don't have skill to make a living. Moreover, manufacturing process implies low skills are learnable for such a low education person in deprived cities.

I call this business because more or less, I found charity is not really helping them to become self-sustained. That is why I want to focus my expertise and resource to build such business.

P.S. Those beggars are another unethical business and make people feel so bad about ALL needy people (as a whole). They really abused us, as a good person.
