- Trade to fulfil their mission;
- Derive a substantial portion of their income from trade; and
- Reinvest the majority of their profit/surplus in the fulfilment of their mission.

What is Social Enterprise?
Social enterprise is a business model whose goals, mission,and vision embrace social values and have a direct positiveimpact on the community.
Features of a Social Enterprise:
- Run as a regular business, but with a second (social) and sometimes third (environmental) bottom line
- Returns are measured not just in terms of dollars, but also on societal impact (e.g. number of jobs created for the marginalized, number of people no longer relying on the social safety net, increase in number of contributing taxpayers, pounds of waste saved from landfill, etc.)
