Thankyou, Chapter One


I have never read a book in one day before. Until two days ago. My mum came home with a book called Chapter One, written by one of the co-founders of my favourite organisation, Thankyou (yes, no space inbetween). It's the story of the highs and lows of the company up to right now, Daniel Flynn is not one to delay something until the right moment if he can do it now. The book is amazing, but first let me give you a quick run down of Thankyou.

Founded by three university students in Melbourne, Thankyou aims to sell products everyday people buy, and use 100% of the profit to fund projects in third world countries. They sell water, funding water projects, Cereal/Muesli Bars/Granola to fund food projects, and body care, to fund health & sanitation projects. The company has faced enormous set backs, but their all-important question, "what if it works?" has gotten their unique business model beating global companies like evian and dove on Coles and Woolworths shelves. As of January 2016, they have raised $3.7 million dollars.
