At the crossroads: Social and faith-based entrepreneurship

The term social entrepreneurship is relatively recent, coming into favor over the last 30 years (Dray-ton, 2002). When discussing social entrepreneurship, it may be helpful to explore the role faith-based organizations play within social entrepreneurship, a topic that has not received adequate attention in the scholarly literature. This article features a case study of a 118-year-old faith-based organization and explores its ability to create positive change, both locally and internationally. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
