Hello Jane! Thank you for jumping into the conversation brain-first! First off this is a question many of us in CAGP have had for almost a decade now and I'm proud to say the CAGP conference education team started and continues to address by making sure that there are always a couple sessions at our national conference on just this topic! What is social enterprise, social investment and how will it affect us as charities and fundraisers. So I hope we'll see you in Toronto in 2017 at this session. In the meantime, and I hope we'll see more comments from other members but speaking with this kind of donor, who I often refer to as "the donation-as-investment minded donor" we in charity simply need to adapt to this mindset and language. Knowing how our charity creates impact with their donated dollar ( and increasingly how our charity manages those dollars which is a new skill set for fundraisers ) will be more important. Now, the reading. Only because I personally like some reading around things...here are some links ( and again I hope a peer from Western Canada can chime in here as a lot of my context comes from the work of peers like the Mars Discovery District, SiG at Mars and peers like Purpose Capital and Miller Thomson).
