Meet the New Breed of Entrepreneur

8 women create 5 businesses whose products serve a social goal: helping women to success.

Successful entrepreneurs incorporate philanthropy into their business. But some businesses are philanthropic by their very nature. They are founded to provide jobs for the economically disadvantaged–while producing a product people are happy to pay for.

  1. Arzu Rugs: Hope by Design
  2. BeadforLife: Eradicating Poverty One Bead at a Time
  3. Khaya Cookie Co.: Cookies with a Cause
  4. HairZing: Social Responsibility in Action
  5. Up from the Dust: Supporting Women Microenterprises

This is the new breed of social entrepreneur. They’re making a difference among disadvantage communities and earning a living at the same time. They produce everything from hair accessories and cookies to designer rugs, all while helping women worldwide pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
