Description: The history of Lucinda House Pins is a heart-warming story. Lucinda Yates was homeless in the 1980's. She found some colorful mat boards in a trash can and cut them into shapes to create a house-shaped pin. She sold the first pins to a local homeless shelter for $6, which then sold them for $10 to raise funds. She later started the company Designs by Lucinda, which has sold over 5 million pins and raised more than $25 million for nonprofits. Yates' goal was to raise money for the homeless and increase awareness of homelessness in her community. The original sales of these pins benefited charities that help the homeless, troubled children, and others.
