Social Enterprise part 2

What I heard in class from our speaker abut social enterprise gives me a different view to look at. I thought that a company/ business would only focus on one issue and support it but what I took away from the speaker was that they decided every month to support different issues around the world. Also, I though their money went directly to the country that the issue was at to do something about it but the money actually goes towards another company that does specify in an specific issue and then they put it towards the issue directly. So, I thought everything was done in the spot and directly but it has actually got to go down a chain until it gets to the issue. Therefore when I go to use a business to support an issue I have to figure out all the companies that they might support and see towards what issues my money could go towards. My biggest takeaway from the class and speaker was how a little could go a long way and how little by little things accumulate and you have the potential to make a big difference in somebody else’s life. What I personally would like to do now that I have learned more deeply how social enterprise works is find a business that potentially supports my issue of clean water in third world countries and issues related to it. Now I know that businesses could support many issues at a time so I would have to find one that covers my issue specifically and issues that surround it.
