The article “In a crowded market, entrepreneur finds a sweet way to stand out”
discussed about how Arc Initiative helps Ms. Tesfaye with her business’s development. It is good to see the business school students are using what they learned in classes to help the people in need. And this makes me wonder, what if the United Nations was fully funded? Will the problems still occur?
If United Nation is fully funded, a lot of things will probably be easier. Poor people will have enough resources for living, and their will be probably be less conflicts and wars…
But, is it possible for United Nation to help everyone in the world? People in different culture and social backgrounds are dealing with very different problems: education, health and so on. If United Nations wants to deal with everything, it needs to have huge amount of fund and a lot of people to work for it, which is almost impossible.
Frankly speaking, neither United Nation nor Social Enterprise should be the one to be responsible for the social problems happening nowadays. Scarcity of resources and social inequality will always exist, what we can do is to trying to help the poor people to get out of their situation. Therefore, it is good that some successful entrepreneurs are taking actions to help poor people and becoming social entrepreneurs.
