Social Enterprise

Maine Businesses for Sustainability is working to build a network of Social Entrepreneurs.  We have started a Maine Social Enterprise Linkedin Group to facilitate connections between social entrepreneurs in Maine.  In addition, we’re gathering resources for social entrepreneurs, including funding sources for social entrepreneurs, but we'd love your input, please email us if you have ideas or resources to share.  There are several sources of funding available for social enterprises in Maine.  The list provided is not comprehensive but should be a good start.

Maine Angels
MIX forums

In addition to funding sources, below are links to various social enterprise sites that provide useful and inspiring information.
