But given the events of this Fall/Winter season, I’d like to highlight a campaign that might help Puerto Ricans -- and other people that want to help Puerto Ricans -- reimagine how they gift over the next few months. Puerto Ricans don’t stop celebrating Christmas until February. Last week, a venture in Puerto Rico called Colmena66 launched a website that enables people outside of Puerto Rico to shop for products and hire for talent in Puerto Rico. Shop and Hire PRI will devote an entire article early next year to how Shop and Hire can help unleash the amazing talent that resides in Puerto Rico; I have an office on the island for my soon-to-be-launched consulting firm and I am already benefitting from the talent base. But today, Giving Tuesday, I’d like to make a short shout-out to Colmena66 for what they are doing for the Puerto Rican vendor community.
