WHO WE ARE

 Picture
The businesses at this festival were started with a deliberate dual purpose: to harness the power of business to address the needs of the community.
 
This innovative concept – called ‘social entrepreneurship’ – has inspired nearly 100 new Columbus-based businesses to make giving back as simple as buying the right cup of coffee or hiring the right landscaper.
 
We search all year to bring together social enterprises, old and new, in historic Franklinton for one day only, so that you can explore and discover who, what and how you want to support social change throughout the year.

What is Social Enterprise?

A social enterprise is a revenue-generating business with primarily social objectives whose surpluses are reinvested for that purpose in the business or in the community, rather than being driven by the need to deliver profit to shareholders and owners.
