In Canada, charity is big business. How big? According to Statistics Canada, economic activity in the non-profit sector represents 8.5 per cent of Canada’s GDP and around 2.4-million people are employed by a non-profit organization.
That number includes many Ivey alumni who are going beyond volunteering and philanthropy to create meaningful careers with social enterprises, established charities, or even launch their own initiatives.
Whether they work in Canada or around the globe, these Ivey grads are united by the desire to use their for-profit skills to build a better world.
