How to See and Fix a Broken System: An Entrepreneur Story
Have you ever wondered how you could positively impact the world as an entrepreneur? Do you want to learn from someone who has done it successfully for over a decade?
If so, you will love this interview with Kurt Kaler, the founder and executive director of 410 Bridge, a Christ-centered non-profit organization that pursues healthy community development in impoverished nations.
Kurt’s entrepreneurial journey started when he took his family on a mission trip to Uganda in 2006. He saw firsthand the enormous economic problems these countries face and how do-gooders and non-government organizations offer many well-intentioned but ineffective solutions.
He realized that there was a better way to help these communities: by empowering them to identify and solve their problems, using their resources and talents. He also discovered that this approach was more sustainable, respectful, rewarding, and fulfilling for both the giver and the receiver.
That’s how 410 Bridge was born: a non-profit that bridges the gap between people who want to help and people who need help by facilitating partnerships based on mutual respect, trust, and accountability.
In this interview, Kurt shares his insights on:
How he came up with the idea of 410 Bridge
What are some of the challenges and successes he has faced along the way
How he balances his personal life and his professional mission
What are some of the best practices for effective community development
