Social starters come in all shapes and sizes, whether you\u2019re a volunteer in your local community, or the instigator of your local beach clean up, social starters are good citizens who create change in their communities or the world at large. Maybe you\u2019re dabbling in your own social enterprise or ethical start-up, or you are the architect behind your company\u2019s new environmental or community initiative. It might be that every now and again you set yourself a big goal, and raise money for your chosen cause. Either way, you are the starter of social good. There are 5 most common \u2018Social Starter\u2019 types, which Andrea outlines in her new book about this phenomenon of aspiring change makers.<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/hzgxnocczscrgoci2yksmvixlsrdausrfa6uuakrbv5tz94y.png.png?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"hzgxnocczscrgoci2yksmvixlsrdausrfa6uuakrbv5tz94y.png.png?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/><\/p><p><\/p><p>Ben Hunter, a social care worker is also the founder of WHiYOU, a fashion store that promotes fashion activism to support unspoken voices.

And know where they come from. Don\u2019t unwittingly support human slavery, just because you want low cost clothes. You can wear good clothes, giving back more than you take AND look good.
