As we enter the general election season, social entrepreneurs have a unique opportunity to help shape and influence the next president’s approach to the non-profit sector. The next president will take office with ambitious goals to tackle our nation’s most serious social challenges, from health care reform to improving the quality of our nation’s schools. At the same time, he will be operating in a climate with limited tolerance for new government spending or government-only solutions. Given this, social entrepreneurs can offer the new president and his administration new, tested solutions to these challenges.
