"The Space Created"

You're so pissed off today, you've been on the bench all day looking at your mattress, because if you do not take it off. You have found it today and you are not willing to let it happen two nights ago, which disappeared. But uncle, you're in the middle of Raval, what do you expect? Well, a place to sleep, a roof, a home, a reference, not having to be all day watching, looking for a hole at night to sobar.

Manuel, you know how to do many things, do not abandon yourself. I have gone through your situation and it is something painful, infamous, a social ignominy, but trust in you, you have worked all your life, until your relationship ended and you sank. You are a born worker, palette, plumber .... why do not you go to find work the day you recover at all? We're going to do it, with Homeless Entrepreneur, or Entrepreneurs Without a Roof, you'll see, we're going to get a home and you'll have food and hygiene. And then, to look for work, without excuses. Your mattress is very symbolic. You do not give a damn, but for me it means a lot that you talked to me. If they help you, they help me, and I help myself. Good luck, champion.This article has been written by  Daniel Marin , an entrepreneur without a roof and his talent is photo-journalism. Note from the Entrepreneurs Without Roof Association . You can make a donation to help you through the bank account of the Entrepreneurs Without Roof Association with the concept #Cobijos:  IBAN No ES78 0081-1699-53-0001058408

"El Saco de Manuel"

Where else do you leave it? It is yours and all the purple people who pass by know that it is where you sleep, because there is no more. Now I've found you in the fountain, washing your armpits, how can you feet, removing those tatty socks and looking through your bag for a new shirt. Today you want to go handsome, you tell me. That is Sunday, fuck, and it has to go handsome. Raised like me in the Judeo-Catholic culture, it is not surprising that you have such great concerns, although it differentiates you from many who know what day you live on, what day it represents, what date it is.

You want a home and you beg of me. I do not have it but together we will get it for you. You know about mechanics and you've been an operator. It's not a big deal, you tell me, but for me the simple fact that you want to get out of this working situation excites me intellectually. Your car waits in the street for scrap and what you find. Above all you will find people who, with their eyes, grieve, apiate, or directly despise. You ignore. You follow your own. At night, your jacket awaits you. The cold, too. Hope, which you never lose, will stalk you again. This article has been written by  Daniel Marin , an entrepreneur without a roof and his talent is photo-journalism. Note from the Entrepreneurs Without Roof Association .You can make a donation to help you through the bank account of the Entrepreneurs Without Roof Association with the concept #Cobijos:  IBAN No ES78 0081-1699-53-0001058408

What can you do to reduce food waste?

For some, food is a luxury in the trash.  The  food  is a  right  but also a duty that everyone can access it. From  # HomelessEntrepreneur  we want to let you know the reality about food waste and I encourage you to act to reduce it. Small details make big differences. According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, Food and Environment ( MAPAMA ) Spanish households discard 25.5 million kg of food each week ( see report ). 8 out of 10 families throw food in the trash

Do not consider them in good condition (fruits, vegetables and fresh bread are the most discarded).In all the processes of the food chain there is waste , in the production, during the treatment of the food, in the distribution and in the consumption. However, it is households that waste the most and throw food away. The reduction of food waste would be an important preliminary step to combat hunger and improve the level of nutrition of the most disadvantaged populations.Currently there are more people aware of food waste and as Nutritionist Dietitian I would like to help you take initiative and act to reduce food waste.  

What can you do to reduce food waste?

1. Plan the purchase and menus each week. Prepare a weekly menu and prepare the shopping list based on it. This way you will not buy food that does not fit the needs of your home.
2. Look closely at the expiration date.
3. Eat seasonal foods and buy "ugly fruit". That the fruit is "ugly" does not mean that it is bad.
4. Adjust the portions. Serve what you are going to eat and, if you see fit, ask for smaller portions in the restaurants. Think of the favor you will do to your pocket.
5. Keep the food well. It seems obvious, but a lot of food is wasted by poor preservation.
