The Street Store

The Street Store a été fondé par Max Pazak et Kayli Vee Levitan de l’agence M&C Saatchi Abel en Afrique. Il s’agit d’une action caritative qui utilise seulement des affiches comme un espace de magasin, pour permettre aux sans-abris d’avoir de nouveaux vêtements offerts par des passants. Une belle leçon de générosité.
