Empower Program for Social Entrepreneurship

The Empower Program for Social Entrepreneurship educates, mentors, and motivates aspiring social entrepreneurs at Tufts. Empower provides financial support to undergraduate and graduate students to gain practical skills through experiential learning in social entrepreneurship. Empower helps students develop the attitudes, skills, and knowledge necessary to pursue business ventures that do well and do good through mentorships with alumni and other skill-building opportunities.  

The program also sponsors events, lectures, and workshops that shape discourse on social entrepreneurship. Through our alumni network we aim at forming a mentorship system for developing aspiring social entrepreneurs at Tufts. Please get in touch with us if you have questions or ideas to pursue. Our current and past fellows are an open community.
