On this week show I'm going to prove to you that in order to practice corporate social responsibility you don't have to be a doctor, or a teacher, you don't have to have a PhD. The only thing you need is the heart to give back, the passion and Drive to pull it off, and the business model to back it up. That's where this weeks guest comes in. The founder and CEO of headbands of hope Jess Ekstrom.
Jess is the leading force at Headbands of Hope, a company she started as a junior in college in 2012. For every headband sold, a headband is given to a child with cancer. The company has been featured on the TODAY Show, Vanity Fair, Seventeen, Good Morning America and more. But more importantly, they've donated over 100,000 headbands to every children's hospital in the United States and 6 countries. Jess is also a professional speaker, author, and writer for Entrepreneur and The Huffington Post.
