IRVINE— Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris honored Doing Good Works for the monthly business spotlight. Doing Good Works, is a small business that does things differently. They hire, train and mentor foster youth. This model is incredibly unique and full of impact as half of foster youth ending up homeless and 4 out of 5 incarcerated Californians were in the foster system.
Doing Good Works is the fastest growing social enterprise in the US. Their business and mission have expanded quickly that they launched Foster Greatness this year as a non-profit to expand their efforts nationwide.
“It was so great meeting the team at Doing Good Works” said Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris. “I am so proud to see foster youth have incredible opportunities to learn and develop in the work force and on the personal level as well. Foster Greatness’ work is truly commendable.”
HDC and Co-founder Scott Henderson said, “We had a great discussion with the Assemblywoman about Doing Good Works and Foster Greatness and ways to create more opportunity for foster youth.”
