The GCSEN Social Entrepreneurship Toolkit is intended to introduce potential social entrepreneurs to some of the critical concepts and tasks related to developing a social enterprise “that marries the mission of a non-profit or government program with the market-driven approach of a business.” It was originally designed for the High Impact Social Entrepreneur (HISE) Boot Camp at Marist College.
