“The idea to pick a problem and solve it in a way that brings in the most creative ideas from the widest possible audience is born from [Yoxi Founder, Sharon] Chang’s feeling that the ‘only way to truly solve problems fundamentally is to stimulate a higher level of creativity.’”
“Yoxi’s larger goal is to bring social good into mainstream conversation. It’s a refreshing shift away from page views and ad pages.”
