Ashoka, a global organization that supports social entrepreneurs, has identified six categories of Fellows based on the types of social change they are driving. These categories are:
1. Social Entrepreneurs: These Fellows are creating innovative solutions to social problems and are working to change systems and mindsets. An example of a Social Entrepreneur Fellow is Veronika Scott, who founded The Empowerment Plan, a nonprofit organization that employs homeless individuals to manufacture sleeping bag coats for those living on the streets.
2. Environmental Entrepreneurs: These Fellows are focused on addressing environmental issues and creating sustainable solutions. An example of an Environmental Entrepreneur Fellow is Mark Ruiz, who co-founded Hapinoy, a social enterprise that empowers women in rural communities in the Philippines to become micro-entrepreneurs selling essential goods and services.
3. Health Entrepreneurs: These Fellows are working to improve access to healthcare and develop innovative health solutions. An example of a Health Entrepreneur Fellow is Leila Janah, who founded Samasource, a nonprofit that connects people living in poverty to digital work opportunities.
4. Human Rights Entrepreneurs: These Fellows are dedicated to promoting and protecting human rights around the world. An example of a Human Rights Entrepreneur Fellow is Kailash Satyarthi, who founded Bachpan Bachao Andolan, an organization working to end child labor and trafficking in India.
5. Learning Entrepreneurs: These Fellows are focused on transforming education and creating new learning opportunities. An example of a Learning Entrepreneur Fellow is Dave Levin, who co-founded KIPP (Knowledge is Power Program), a network of charter schools aimed at closing the achievement gap for low-income students.
6. Civic Entrepreneurs: These Fellows are driving social change through civic engagement and community organizing. An example of a Civic Entrepreneur Fellow is Eric Liu, who co-founded Citizen University, an organization that promotes and teaches the art of powerful citizenship.
