Save the Earth Projects (S.T.E.P.) is a social entrepreneurship organization focused on supporting communities worldwide. Started by leader Olivia Russo-Hood, S.T.E.P. aims to recognize social problems and organize, create, and manage collaborative ventures to make a change. Corporate businesses typically focus on profit and return, whereas social enterprises also measure the returns to society. Olivia partners with individuals and companies across the world in efforts to raise awareness about impactful global issues, encourage taking action and making a difference locally, and generating positive outcomes together to make the world a better place, one S.T.E.P. at a time.
