The goal of some companies is to earn a profit for the founders or the stock holders. While other people build enterprises that solve economic, social or environmental problems – known as social enterprises. They create sustainable businesses that generate revenues to cover costs while also making a difference to people or our planet. Grace & Flavor, a coffee shop opening in Springdale, Arkansas will train and employ neurodiverse adults. The business is a part of Spectrum Living Solutions (rebranding as Supporting Lifelong Success) founded by Ashton and Betts McCombs to build a community where neurodiverse adults can flourish and interact meaningfully with the broader community and find their path to self-actualization. Soon you can plan a lunch date and help build community while sipping your coffee.

I love that Northwest Arkansas is opening a coffee shop that has purpose and meaning behind it. I think that this is a very important concept behind entrepreneurship, that the individual takes business risks because of their passionate and purpose behind their business.
