28、Levi Lamb is a teenager with a big heart and an eggcellent idea that has enabled him to help people who are homeless. The 12-year-old North Beach resident has developed his own farm fresh egg delivery business servicing northern suburb residents on a fortnightly (两周一次的) basis. And in the alternate weeks when Levi doesn’t deliver eggs, he and his customers work together to help people who are homeless by running food charity. “In the weeks I don’t deliver egg we connect with my community and collect cup of soups,spaghetti and my eggs, of course, and we give the food to people experiencing homelessness.” he said.
Since starting the business in January, Levi’s Eggs has gained a fantastic reach online and has proven a cracking business for the young man. The Carine High School student developed the business to get some extra pocket money and stared selling fresh es to family members before advertising the unique delivery service on Facebook.
Levi’s goal was to make enough money to make the business profitable (赢利的), which he said he had achieved but jokingly would not give away the fact how many customers he had. “It varies each fortnight, but a good business man never counts his chickens before they hatch,” he said. “My eggs are only two to three days old when I deliver them; we ensure that we collect the eggs direct off the truck and deliver them to my customers’ door the same day,” he said.
