Ultimately though, I think what's so interesting about this time that, you know, FEED has been around, so the last 10 years, and especially more true now than even then, is that, you know, young people or anyone, everyone is really looking to businesses to do good for the world. So whereas before, kind of growing up, you would say, okay, if you want to change the world or do good for the world, you should go into government or you should go join a non-profit. And I think there's a lot of, like, responsibility being placed on businesses, as there should be, to also take a stand and to try and strive to make the world a better place. And I do think, you know, the magic formula is kind of connecting in a very authentic way to that cause that you care about and want to see change.

I really think of Feed as a movement.
