Community Care

What is a Social Enterprise?

According to the British Columbia Centre for social enterprise, “social enterprises are revenue-generating businesses with a twist”. While social enterprises may seem to be like any other traditional business, they are much more and offer more to the community.

They have 2 main goals:

  1. To achieve a social, cultural, community, or environmental outcome

  2. To generate revenue.

As a social enterprise, Clean Works aims to provide training, employment, and support to those living in the community who may be facing multiple barriers to traditional employment.

What is Clean Works?

Clean Works was founded in 2008 in response to the recession. Pathways Employment Help Centre was looking for an opportunity to assist those struggling to find employment, while also supporting the community.

As a social enterprise, Clean Works hires those who may require additional support, training, or schedule flexibility. This allows those who may lack experience, have been out of the workforce for a while, or who need to slowly transition to full-time work the opportunity to earn money while receiving the support they need to be successful.

Non-profits are driven by their missions to impact people in their communities. Pathways Employment Help Centres’ mission is to unleash people’s potential through employment, skills training, and advocacy.
