Unseen Tours: Employing London's Homeless as Tour Guides

Volunteers from the organization Sock Mob, which offers socks and food supplies to London's homeless, have recently launched "Unseen Tours."  Unseen Tours employs homeless guides to take tourists on a tour of the city of London.  The guides get to keep most of the tour fees to help pay for food and, hopefully, housing.
