Abstract
Social enterprise is a powerful business model to tackle the challenges our economy and communities are facing today. This research shows that social enterprises are taking on many social and systemic challenges simultaneously, while also running successful businesses and creating positive financial outcomes for their employees and communities. When you purchase from a social enterprise, you are using your purchasing to support businesses that put people and planet over profit maximization. Social enterprises use business to create a powerful and positive ripple effect in our communities, building community capital.
