The
need for a Social Enterprise Conference Gala: With the uncertain future of charitable giving, fledging
nonprofit organizations are struggling financially to keep providing much
needed services to an every increasing demand for their
services. Moreover, if nonprofit organizations wish to survive into the
next millennium, they must adapt innovative alternatives to funding in building
sustainability in light of continuing cutbacks in government support. If
nonprofits are to weather the years ahead, program administrators and project
directors must become increasingly creative and professional at fundraising,
planning, and management. With social entrepreneurs leading the charge, what’s
next for the sustainability of nonprofits? Especially those at the grass-root
levels. Thus, the purpose of this conference is to address, educate, and offer
practical solutions to a business model sweeping the nation; Social
Enterprise. We will also examine the Social Impact Bonds and other
approaches to venture development that will address the needs of not
for-profits, with a social conscience, and nonprofits.
Who Should Attend? Whether you’re a current social entrepreneur or working in
the social enterprise sector, mid-to-large corporations considering starting a
social enterprise, business owners, nonprofit, or member of a public or private
sector considering a Social Enterprise model for their business, charity
or community group, or are simply interested in the social impact
movement, we need your participation during this epic event!
