Holiday weekend shopping: Adelante!

As I still have a large group of people coming over for dinner tonight, I will not join the U.S. tradition of shopping today.  But if you’re looking for shoes (or information about the entrepreneurial activities of Fletcher students), check out this story about second-year MALD student Peter Sacco and his new social enterprise, Adelante Shoe Co., which he is launching this month.  Peter notes that Adelante “is dedicated to making it absolutely effortless for you to buy a socially responsible pair of shoes without compromising on quality, style or affordability.”  His Kickstarter campaign starts today, and if you choose to buy a pair of shoes, you’ll be a member of Adelante’s Founders Club.  Or just check out the website and find out what Adelante is all about.
