Social Entrepreneurship





The internet is an interesting in which you can start in one place and end up in another.  I was searching for a topic to post in this blog and went from one thing to another until I found something of interest.

That when I cam upon Hopeful Staffing.  This is a social entrepreneurship organization.  For those of you who do not know what that is it is the combination of business beliefs with non profits in which you better humanity through a self sustaining program that can even make a profit, neat huh?

Pretty much what this organization is a staffing agency for the homeless.  I like social entrepreneurship because it takes creative thinking to help someone with out having to rely on someone else for funding when it comes to social programs.

Well here is a link to a short article on Hopeful Staffing.

By the way this ties in to public health because public health in one description is just simply the bettering of everybody plus many programs are funded by organizations or/and the government.  I would love to see some social entrepreneurship in public health.

Cheers!
