Social Enterprise Alliance Announces San Francisco Bay Area Chapter
Washington, DC (Oct 23, 2009) - The Social Enterprise Alliance, a national association representing the growing number of social enterprises across the country, has named its fourth local chapter. The SEA-San Francisco Chapter will host learning and networking opportunities among social enterprises, foundations, lenders, educators and technical assistance providers in the Bay Area to foster a robust sector of organizations using business strategies for generating social and environmental value.
The Social Enterprise Alliance's Summit, now in its 11th year, annually convenes over 500 enterprising leaders for training on the nuts and bolts of planning and operating a social enterprise. The 2010 Summit will be held in San Francisco, April 28-30, and will also host the 3rd Social Enterprise World Forum. SEA launched its chapter program in 2008 to provide peer networking and information exchange in local communities year-round.
"SEA chapters will help to accelerate social innovation in communities and spur the emergence of a robust local support system for social enterprise," says Social Enterprise Alliance President Kris Prendergast.
The SEA-San Francisco Bay Area Chapter will offer public programs three times per year on social enterprise topics, and provide local SEA members with opportunities to connect with each other in person and online throughout the year.
Growing in numbers, social enterprises harness the strength of marketplace practices with the values and objectives of the social sector to address some of society's most pressing social problems. With the tightening of the economy and its ripple effects, today's social enterprises are more important than ever to sustain vital human and employment services, youth development, environmental quality, and other public benefit programs.
