Empower

The Empower Program for Social Entrepreneurship educates, mentors, and connects aspiring social entrepreneurs at Tufts. Through the Empower program, students develop the necessary attitudes, skills, and knowledge to pursue entrepreneurial ventures. All of these entrepreneurial ventures have a uniquely social perspective, with a particular emphasis on poverty alleviation.

The Empower Fellowship provides students the opportunity to launch social enterprises, participate in internships and conduct applied research related to social entrepreneurship in international or local community development. The fellowship offers either a grant or stipend for students to pursue these opportunities and allows students to develop the necessary attitudes, skills, and knowledge to pursue entrepreneurial ventures with a social perspective. If you are interested, please complete the application for the 2019 Empower Fellowship by March 24th, 2019.
