Over 150 active vendors buy and resell StreetWise each month, with over 200 vendors who sell the magazine each year. Vendors purchase the magazine for $1.15 and resell for $3.00, keeping the profit and any tips. Selling the magazine is an opportunity to earn an income to meet immediate and basic needs. We offer a "hand up, not a hand out." StreetWise vendors are investing in their future as they seek a pathway out of homelessness and poverty.
