#14 It's a Food Cart! No, it's a Hair Cart! No, it's Jamal Gardner! Grubbin'/Simply Braids

As a "graduate" of Sonja Skvarta's A Social Ignition program while in prison, Jamal Gardner soaked up everything he could to become an entrepreneur. Springing forward upon release, he joined Toastmasters, became president of his club and pushed forward his ideas on carts. Food carts in a mall featuring multi-ethnic dishes, a "hair cart" offering mobile braiding and his own clothing line are all ideas under his Grubbin' brand and he's passing the passion and encouragement on to others.
