Work With Us ... Collaboration

Social Enterprise Associates values approaching engagements through collaboration and partnerships. We support providing appropriate, guided opportunities for young people interested in entering the field and motivated professionals seeking to contribute services. We are open to new partnerships and consulting relationships. The goal is to build a strong web covering a range of expertise. Therefore, when partners and/or clients have a specific need outside of Social Enteprise Associates' core areas, we offer a qualified, viable referral network, and vice-versa.

Collaboration & Partnerships

Our name is Associates for a reason. We are interested in working with like-minded peers, as well as private sector professionals seeking to build a better tomorrow. We strive to connect people to meaningful social enterprise efforts and projects.

At Social Enterprise Associates, We want to open access to bring sharp minds with new ideas and capable skills to this field. While partnerships do take time to develop, ultimately they are stronger ways to do business as they allow each entity to focus on its core competencies.

Please contact us for mutual benefit. As an introduction, send a BRIEF email detailing your services and how we might work together. Let us know what sets you apart, what interests you about social enterprise, how you heard about us, and something fun about you. Please do not send large attachments.
