Ifeel useful

Users want to feel useful When we feel useful, it affirms a sense of purpose, accomplishment, maybe a little responsibility, and holds a sense of positive accountability for others. I think here, we can come back to the quote on our title slide. When The Bridge is given the tools in the framework to use they can feel useful. They are able feel useful, as in, they know their purpose, mission, accountability to communicate and be the face for their culture and community back home When speaking to someone at the fair in New York City - ICFF, from Argentina, they expressed how yes, they understood when suggested to increase their prices for their canvas lunch totes and hampers, but they informed, that $40 for a tote bag, would get them far back home. That it was indeed enough money. With their weekly inflations, in comparison to United States Citizens, they were happy with that sale, and it did make a difference to them. They feel useful when they're able to bring back home to their families, economy, community two twenty dollar bills for a product, nothing more was necessary. They "pull out the rabbits magic hat" when they need to figure things out And I, as the buyer in that situation, regret not making that purchase, because I could have felt useful now reflecting back on this story. But I hope for everyone else that day that reserved a tote bag on that shelf, felt useful too.
