INTRODUCTION: Marginal and deprived communities are isolated from the mainstream economy and is important in bringing social upliftment. The Mission of our foundation is to promote the Social (community) Entrepreneurs because their business activity is undertaken as a means of achieving community benefit along with their personal gain. We promote social entrepreneurs who involve the marginal people and use their business models to address social and environmental issues, such as poverty, climate change, and access to education and healthcare. Marginal People, in general, are faced with issues related to poverty, illiteracy, lack of skills, poor health care systems, etc. These are problems that cannot be tackled individually but can be better solved through group efforts. There is a need to organize the poor and marginalized to come together for solving individual or collective problems. Community-based entrepreneurship is now seen as a viable alternative for development processes.
