2. Defining Social Impact Investment
Social impact investing refers to investments made into companies, organizations and funds with the intention to generate a measurable, beneficial social impact alongside a financial return.
It represents an opportunity to invest charitable assets in the growth of our economy while producing financial returns and addressing systemic, social issues.
In sum, it aligns the goals and aspirations of our communities, our most dynamic businesses and employers and the philanthropic sector.

3. Defining Social Enterprise
Social Enterprise Entities address a basic unmet need or solve a societal problem through a market-driven or commercial approach.
A Social Enterprise Entity is a business with primarily social objectives.
Any profits that are created are reinvested into the charitable or social mission of that entity (or into the community) rather than maximizing profits for shareholders. 

4. Defining Corporate Social Responsibility
Socially conscious businesses embrace a philosophy reflected in their product creation and marketing, their consumer interactions and the workplace they create for their employees.
Their decisions balance a desire for profits with a commitment to social impact. They understand consumer decisions are increasingly driven by and aligned with their beliefs and values.
