Teen With Cerebral Palsy Starts Business Making $5M a Year | Entrepreneur
Briefly

Drew Davis, a young entrepreneur with cerebral palsy, lost 150 pounds through dietary changes and his love for hot sauce. At 16, he created 'Crippling Hot Sauce', intending not just to sell but to inspire others in the disabled community by donating 5% of profits to cerebral palsy research. Despite initial skepticism from a teacher regarding his business plan, Davis launched the brand with $3,000 in his parents' kitchen. Two years later, Crippling Hot Sauce has sold over 500,000 bottles and achieved $5 million in revenue, going viral while maintaining its charitable mission.
