Lentil as Anything began as a hangout for performers and
other creative artists. What developed was a sense
of ‘Lentil Unity'. The ‘Magic Box’ was born and soon became a
symbol of the system of trust that had developed—patrons
were free to choose how much they would donate. It was
a system that proved to be both fair and sustainable, and
one that allowed for everyone, without exclusion, to become
part of a community and to share in the same ‘Lentil Credit’.
