ANNOUNCING THE USC MARSHALL BSEL GRANTS PROGRAM!

This Social Enterprise grants program will give you an opportunity to vie for a total of $85,000 in grants which will be awarded by students in a highly exclusive, USC course hosted by the Brittingham Social Enterprise Lab.  This hands-on course will introduce your organization to a community of USC Marshall School of Business students committed to evaluating and investing in mission-related social enterprises.

CONTESTANTS MUST:

• Be nonprofit, 501c3 organizations;

• Receive SOME revenue from an earned income venture that has been selling a product or service for at least three months;

• Be willing to accommodate a student site visit in September, and, if selected for possible funding, work with students on a proposal and attend an awards ceremony in late November.

• Be within an hour’s drive (50 miles) of the USC campus.

This site promotes programs which support social entrepreneurship and social enterprise. Currently, it is host for a Social Enterprise Grants Program directed to nonprofit, 501c3 organizations that want to expand their social enterprises.
