Brittany Wiest (Tennessee)  has been a Designed Conviction contributor for several years. Her work clearly stood out to the people who walked by. 

With this new year, Our Social Enterprise is taking our work in the community to the next level. We have now established a Charity Foundation.

A life sentence can weigh on you as a constant reminder of your past misdeeds, but I’m here to tell you: your crimes are something you did, and it’s not who you are; your time doesn’t define you. We must live with the attitude of freedom and be worthy of the freedom through our behavior today, not who we were 20 years ago.
