This week=2C we began our People content series=2C looking at how startups=
can benefit local and global communities=2C and the lives of the people t=
hey serve. Social enterprises do just that - by focussing on a social prob=
lem they want to solve=2C and generating revenue to do it.

For social enterprises=2C it=E2=80=99s not just about doing good. You actu=

and that=E2=80=99s to turn over profit. Crucially=2C it=E2=80=99s how you=
use the profit which matters. So how does Hey Girls balance changing the=
world and making money?
Celia tells us:
=E2=80=9CWe don=E2=80=99t have shareholders=2C so we=E2=80=99re a communit=

includes the donation=2C so it=E2=80=99s the customer that donates - Hey=
Girls just organises the process. It=E2=80=99s all got to go back into th=
