So how do we end it? Do we focus on creating jobs? Do we work on fixing K-12 education? Do we make sure everyone can go to college? Do we start by putting food on every plate and a roof over every head? Or do we have to start by figuring out the root causes? #howtoendpoverty

We are in the first rehearsal for How To End Poverty. It's happening. 17 performances, $17,000 given to local anti poverty work. How should that money be given? Put it in our ask, or just use #howtoendpoverty . Of course, the only way to really vote is to be in the room... We open February 3rd. Want to come, but full ticket price is prohibitive? Just ask. We're bringing in a diverse audience, and if ticket price is a barrier, we want to help remove it.

Beautiful artwork at the @pearmentor gallery. Created by the homeless youth who they work with, 90% of the sale price goes directly to the artist. Keep an eye out for more about them as we start diving into work for #howtoendpoverty .
