 # Enactus Students Help Break Homeless Cycle

  Campaign:  [See Opportunity](/news/campaign/see-opportunity)  ![](https://3blcdn.com/styles/carousel_2x/s3/2026-08/homeless_1786917873.jpg "Helpless or helpful, what do you see?")

 Helpless or helpful, what do you see? 

 

**Helpless or helpful, what do you see?**  
An Australian Enactus team came up with a business plan to help try to break the homeless cycle. By hiring homeless people as tour guides, tourists help employ people while seeing the city from a unique perspective. Three tour guides earned an average of $2,350 in supplemental income through the project, transforming a social problem into an income stream. Learn more about Enactus and this amazing project at <http://enactus.org/seeopportunity/project-gallery/project/helpless-helpful-see/>.
