There is more that Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and his youngest daughter Phoebe have in common than meets the eye. They both have ties to Stanford University and, in the centibillionaire’s own words, “Phoebe and I both left college early, but she came away from Stanford with a degree.” They are both voracious readers, and now they have some “business” to discuss as well. No, the Reproductive Health Advocate hasn’t joined Microsoft, but as expected, she has paved her own path that has led her to business. Phoebe Gates is the co-founder of Phia, a forthcoming digital fashion platform.

With rising homelessness and poverty, it goes without saying that our current paradigm in addressing these serious problems—that is, fragmented and short-term solutions—is not working. While emergency shelters, food pantries, and temporary housing are needed, they are only Band-Aids on top of a deeper wound. Dealing with homelessness and poverty requires new strategies rooted in the very causes of these issues. One of the most hopeful ways for the empowerment of homeless and underprivileged populations into self-sustaining communities is through sustainable technologies, such as solar energy and community gardens, with targeted assistance programs.
