- From the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation
- An estimated 800,000 nonprofit organizations have been established in the
past thirty years (Bornstein, 1998). Management and innovation in the
nonprofit sector are seen by such notable experts as Peter Drucker as the most
vital challenges of the present era. The nonprofits are also seen as a growing
source of solutions to issues that currently plague society, such as poverty,
crime, and abuse. Within this sector, greater attention is being focused on
those individuals who have a vision for social change and who have the
financial resources to support their ideas. Those individuals, known as social
entrepreneurs, exhibit all the skills of successful business people as well as a
powerful desire for social change.
