What is Social Enterprise?

Social Enterprise is a purpose driven program whose primary purpose is to make a lasting positive social impact on both individuals and the wider community whilst generating enough income from associated businesses to sustain the program long term.

How we help?

The program is aiming to support young people (16-25) who are not engaged in either employment or formal education. It will equip individuals with on-the-job training, nationally recognised qualifications where relevant, work-based experience in a supported environment by subject matter experts, and most importantly employment.

By building the skills and capabilities of program participants, the ability to enter the open job market becomes easier, this will ultimately support not only the individual but also the social and economic well-being of the overall community.

Our Social Enterprise team provides services in the areas of:

  • Home Maintenance
  • Canteens 4 Kids ACT
  • Catering Services

The Social Enterprise program will equip vulnerable people with job-ready skills that will have a positive impact to the individual and subsequently to the wider community. The program will provide quality services to a broad range of clients across Canberra and the surrounding areas.
