The Centre for Social Entrepreneurship at Georgian College, together with the Social Enterprise Network of Central Ontario, is hosting Owen Sound Changemaker Days at the Owen Sound Campus on Wednesday, March 23 from 10 a.m. to noon.

The free professional development events include "Localized Coffee Conversations" and an introductory social enterprise and changemaking workshop.

The event will appeal most to Grey-Bruce non-profit organizations and their stakeholders who are developing or are already operating a social enterprise. Participants will enjoy fresh local coffee, great conversation and networking, followed by specialized workshops.

Social enterprises address the most pressing problems faced by societies by employing scalable, self-sustaining and innovative unique social business models. These business models address the "triplebottom line": Planet (environmental); people (social and cultural); and profit. Social enterprise is a method for creating change, but is also a tool to diversify and create financial sustainability in non-profit organizations.

Owen Sound Changemaker Days will be tracked on social media through #ChangemakerGC and at @ChangemakerGC.

The event is sponsored by Georgian College's Centre for Social Entrepreneurship using RECODE grant funding from the J.W. McConnell Family Foundation
