The United Nations has a mission mainly about Peace keeping, Security and promoting Human Rights as a whole. It is basically here to create a more peaceful environment for the whole generation to live. It is usually considering the hot and bigger issues in the world  such as countries independency and wars. It is really hard for the United Nations to focus on some smaller but still relatively important issues. This is when social enterprise comes up. United Nations usually focus on Bigger issues while social enterprises can concentrate more on smaller or regional issues. Also the United Nation focus more on the relationship between countries while social enterprise can concentrate more on a specific country’s issue such as poverty in Bangladesh. By dealing with a smaller issue, it can cause a more efficient outcome. Nowadays, Social enterprises has really made a change on things. One which touched me deeply was the microfinance project. The social enterprises saw future and potential in the poor instead of seeing tragic consequences. The poor may not be able to mange their own money so they need someone to teach them or help them to manage. In a article I saw about Zimbabwe, they are suffering a tremendous inflation and a huge lack of health care, these are what we can do or in other words the social enterprises can do. By simply providing them equipments or clean water can make a difference to their lives. An  news report stated that only $27 can prevent a child from starving for a whole year. It would be really complicated and time consuming for the United Nations to deal with these since it is a huge organization and many projects needs to take time to be approved. Each different social Enterprise can focus on a different country or area and make things more efficient and  useful.

Nevertheless, each one of us is a citizen of the world and has responsibility to help others and share our love! United Nations is only one oorganization which would be unrealistic for all of us to participate in. Social enterprises gives a chance for each one of us to share our happiness and love to the world. You don’t have to be a doctor or know any specific knowledge to be a social enterprises, Just show that you want to help. This might be the most important reason why even though the United Nations is here, we still need social enterprises.
