Directory of Social Enterprises: Homelessness Programs

Date Published: October 14, 2008
Publisher: Community Wealth Ventures and Social Enterprise Alliance

Community Wealth Ventures and Social Enterprise Alliance have assembled a directory of nonprofit organizations with business ventures and strategic alliances as a reference tool to help build a broad network of social enterprise practitioners around the country. For the purposes of this directory, business ventures and strategic alliances are defined as follows:

  • Business Venture: A business with revenues generated from the sale of products and/or services to customers beyond the organization's immediate constituents.
  • Strategic Alliance: A partnership between a company and a nonprofit with a mutually beneficial outcome. For example, a company might partner with a nonprofit to market an image, product, or service. The nonprofit may benefit from revenues or in-kind donations that fund its cause or programs.
