What's in it for me?

The scarcest resource of many social enterprises is talent. By donating, STREAT can enhance it's business through the sponsored intern's expertise.  As an alumni, you can learn more about the principles of social enterprise by attending the guest lecture.

How will I be informed of the project's progress?

The class gift committee will issue periodic emails to update you of the developments in this initiative.
