WHAT IS A SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR

“[an] individual with innovative solutions to society’s most pressing social problems. A social entrepreneur is ambitious and persistent, tackling major social issues and offering new ideas for wide-scale change. Rather than leaving societal needs to the government or business sectors, a social entrepreneur finds what is not working and solves the problem by changing the system, spreading the solution, and persuading entire societies to take new leaps."
