A social enterprise is an organization that applies
commercial strategies to maximize improvements in human and environmental
well-being, rather than maximising profits for external shareholders. Social
enterprises can be structured as a for-profit or non-profit, and may take the
form of a co-operative, mutual organization, a social business, or a charity
organization.
Many commercial enterprises would consider themselves to
have social objectives, but commitment to these objectives is motivated by the perception
that such commitment will ultimately make the enterprise more financially
valuable. Social enterprises differ in that, inversely, they do not aim to
offer any benefit to their investors, except where they believe that doing so
will ultimately further their capacity to realize their social and
environmental goals
