Social Enterprise

Social enterprises are more-than-profit businesses that use blended-value models to create a revenue-generating business with a social-value generating element. Presenter Betsy Densmore, Founder & Manager Director of Academies for Social Entrepreneurship, educated the group about this model of social change and how it can raise money for your mission. With philanthropic dollars becoming harder to raise, social enterprise may be the wave of the future for many nonprofits. If you would like to learn more about how to start or run a social enterprise, you can apply for one of their academies: https://www.academies-se.org/academies.
