1. ALTRD ($12K/year)
Saara and Stephanie, long-time friends with socially oriented businesses, came up with the idea for ALTRD after realizing the lack of convenient tailoring solutions in the corporate world. They saw an opportunity to connect skilled immigrant women, who were talented at sewing but restrained by cultural and childcare reasons, with individuals in need of quality, convenient alterations. Through running a successful pilot and utilizing platforms like Shopify and Yelp, ALTRD has gained momentum and aims to expand to other cities in the future.
How much money it makes: $12K/year
