Welcome to Social Enterprise Alliance Chicago!

Social enterprise in the Chicago area is thriving.

Nonprofits which have adopted earned income strategies and social-purpose businesses are collaborating across sectors and missions to drive positive social change. Increasingly, funders, lenders, investors, business and law students, academics, professionals and consultants are enthusiastically joining our ranks because they also see merit in applying market strategies to generate social value.

Whether you are just beginning to explore the possibilities of social enterprise, or already lead a successful enterprising nonprofit or social-purpose business, Social Enterprise Alliance Chicago invites you to take full advantage of the educational, networking, information exchange and advocacy initiatives our chapter energetically advances. Together, we will share our resources and relationships to leverage the extraordinary power of social innovation and social entrepreneurship.`

Cordially,
Marc J. Lane
