Modern Community Development

The Center for Social Entrepreneurship’s mission is to help iVillagers eliminate blight, harness talent, grow businesses, and engage, civically. There are 4 pillars:  housing, education, economic development and community engagement. All CSE projects target individual wealth helping the family and the iVillage become sustainable.  At CSE, we seek the internal discipline to push the envelope in thought and action, in ourselves and iVillagers.
