Enterprising Nonprofits

Venture mission and market impact for social purpose

Profits channeled back into the organization

Two types:

Earned income activities

Venture philanthropy funding

Types of Social Entrepreneurship

Enterprising non-profits are a form of social entrepreneurship where both the venture mission and the market impact are for social purposes. This means that any profits made must be channelled back into the organization. Unlike social purpose ventures, profit may not be distributed to the owners of the enterprising non-profit. There are over 1.5 million non-profit organizations in operation in the US today, including charities, foundations, and others (see Table 4.2).

Who Are Stakeholders?

Social Entrepreneurs and Their Stakeholders

Building relationships with key stakeholders is an important way to gain support, but you must also prove to your key stakeholders how you intend to generate value for them. While “doing good deeds” is a worthy objective, your stakeholders will want to understand the value from being involved with the venture.

Types of Stakeholders

Social Entrepreneurs and Their Stakeholders

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) describes the efforts taken by corporations to address the company's effects on environmental and social wellbeing in order to promote positive change. While social entrepreneurship may sound similar to the corporate social responsibility (CSR) model, they are not the same (see Table 4.7).

The difference lies in the primary objective. In essence, CSR adds social objectives while still pursuing the main goal of making a profit. In contrast, many social entrepreneurship models, including the hybrid model, place equal emphasis on social and economic goals. An organization with a CSR strategy could reduce spending on its CSR program if it is struggling to meet revenues, whereas a social enterprise would prioritize its social goals even in the face of a reduction in profits.

Example: Work Integration Social Enterprises (WISE)

Social Entrepreneurship and Global Inclusion

Many of us live in a “me-centered” world, where events and relationships are measured by how much, and in what ways, they affect us. Being “other-centered” means stepping outside ourselves, and shifting the focus onto serving others for the good of the greater community.

Srikumar Rao, “Moving from a ‘me’ to an ‘other-centered’ universe,’ Huffpost Healthy Living (April 14, 2010) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/srikumar-s-rao/how-to-be-happy-moving-fr_b_570730.html retrieved on October 30, 2015.

MINDSHIFT: Practice Being “Other-Centered”

In this Mindshift, your challenge is to practice being “other- centered” for one week. Many of us live in a “me-centered” world, where events and relationships are measured by how much, and in what ways, they affect us. Being “other-centered” means stepping outside ourselves, and shifting the focus onto serving others for the good of the greater community.

MINDSHIFT: Practice Being “Other-Centered”

For example, instead of getting frustrated at an older adult taking forever to put away her change at the checkout line, give her a reassuring smile, and maybe offer to help her with her bags of groceries. Think about different ways in which you can cheer up others. Make someone else’s day.

2. Was it easier than you expected, or more difficult, to focus for an entire day on being other-centered? Would you want to continue this focus for a second day running?
