Upcoming events

One Acre Fund discussion on International Development Careers

Jan 23rd, 6:00-7:15PM

Join the Social Enterprise Institute as we welcome Barrett Prinz, the Global HR and Legal Manager at One Acre Fund, an agricultural organization which helps East African farmers grow their way out of poverty. One Acre Fund utilizes an innovative market system – making it possible for even the poorest and most rural farmer to generate more income, and permanently solve their own hunger problem. Barrett Prinz will discuss One Acre Fund’s work in pioneering agricultural finance for the rural poor in East Africa. Mr. Prinz will also discuss career opportunities in international development, particularly with organizations such as One Acre Fund. Please RSVP (limited seating available) at http://oneacrefund.eventbrite.com

Refreshments will be served!
