by Nate St. Pierre on April 7, 2013

Just over three years ago (which is a long time in Internet years), I decided to build a team based around the idea of leaving encouraging comments of love and hope on the blog posts of people who were going through a difficult time in their lives. You can take a look back at the [...]

Why I Don’t Work For A Nonprofit

by Nate St. Pierre on March 18, 2013

Over the past four years, I’ve had a lot of success in building global movements, which is a fancy way of saying that I’m good at getting people to believe in an idea that’s important enough to get them up off their couches to go do something to help. I have a skill set that [...]

I Am Giving You A Christmas Present Because I Want To

November 27, 2012

Last month I launched Take Our Stuff, a giveaway site designed to not be boring like most of the other giveaway sites out there. I wanted to give out unique things that you can’t get anywhere else, have a lot of fun, and introduce you to interesting people along the way. It’s been a big [...]

I Regret To Inform You

November 2, 2012

This is the first time I’ve actually been disappointed to be working on a new project. It’s not even something I want to share with you, but unfortunately I have to.
