Social Entrepreneurship

After reading a bit about social entrepreneurship I gathered that it is new type of entrepreneurship and is about fulfilling our social responsibility and social responsiveness. These organizations can be businesses, nonprofit, or government. The social entrepreneur recognizes a social problem that can be on a local or global scale and they have created a way to solve this problem.
A huge part of social enterprise is environmental awareness. This goes along with one of the social entrepreneurships I would like to mention. The Access Fund is a nonprofit organization formed to keeps climbing areas open and conservation of those areas. The Access Fund has helped with trail building, waste disposal facilities, and educational and safety signage for climbing areas. They work on federal, state, and local levels for support on climbing policy and decision making. The Access Fund has worked with the National Audubon Society, the Sierra Club, Wilderness Society, The Nature Conservency, and National Parks and Conservation Association.
If social entrepreneurship continues and more people become involved we shall become a more conscious and responsible society.
