Donovan Discovers was created by the young entrepreneur Donovan Smith at the age of 14. He is from Albuquerque, New Mexico where he started his business. His idea stemmed from his hardships in his childhood. He and his mother were homeless so with the profits from selling his product he always wants to give back to those in need. From making and selling his own soap he donates a portion to the homeless people in Albuquerque. From his incredible work he was shown on TV shows and more. A specific call from an interviewer he figured it was a local station, but it was actually Returning the Favor with Mike Rowe. They ended up creating Donovan’s store and gifting them a brand-new car. Donovan’s life greatly changed at this point. He used to just sell his products online but with this great gift he had his very own store. With having a store, he hopes to mentor those in need. He wants specifically to hire people that are from homeless shelters and those that are at-risk. By doing so, it will create a way for them to get back on their feet.

It’s so cool to see how he used this business idea to give he and his mother a better life. He used it to help his own circumstances and can now do the same for others in similar situations. The fact that Mike Rowe gave him a storefront goes to show that many ideas, with a little help, can be greatly successful.
