After learning all about Social Entrepreneurship in class, I was personally inspired. I never imagined that there was such a strong link between the world of business and the aiding of the world. This concept inspired me so much that I decided to look into some local social entrepreneurs from Vancouver, which is when I discovered Craig and Marc Kielburger who are the founders of the company Free the Children. Free the Children is an amazing example of social entrepreneurship because they are an organization that empowers youth to be active local and global citizens. They guide and encourage young people to make a difference in the world and help others in need. Unlike charities, Free the Children is not a non-profit organization. They use their profits to continue to build their business, which organizes many events and promotes helping those in need. Free the Children also helps the economy by helping society grow. For these reasons and many more, Free the Children is an inspiring organization that makes a difference in our world and is an organization that anyone would be lucky to work for.
