The Contributor is Nashville's homeless newspaper. It employs homeless and formerly homeless people as vendors to sell the paper. There is an average of 400 vendors throughout the Nashville/Davidson County area (over 500 square miles), and beyond. Over 30% of The Contributor's vendors are able to earn enough money through selling the paper to get themselves a place off the streets. No other homeless service provider can make such a claim.
