Why Am I Lying In Bed With Two Men?

It is complicated, because both are my friends. Artur (the one on the left) became quadriplegic after an unlucky jump to the water. Quadri… what?! Quadriplegic. What it means is that all of his four limbs are paralyzed.
We are lying in one bed because we are all in this together. We are together in his disability and in the world, full of social problems that require joint effort to find creative solutions.
For us, social entrepreneurship is one of such solutions. Our business is called “Leżę i Pracuję” (“I am in bed and I work”) because we are in bed and… we work :) We are the first marketing agency created with the aim to give jobs to paralyzed people. People such as Artur.
We believe that having or giving a job is the beginning of the change process. It is not only about money, although money is important. It is also about new goals, new experiences, new relationships, new skills, new knowledge and new achievements.
It is also about having fun, breaking taboos, creating innovations for paralyzed people, inspiring others to do good and simply being active citizens!
Does it make sense? If yes, then we encourage you to stay in touch with us on Facebook! You will find even more pictures there. Visit: www.facebook.com/lezeipracuje
