The Social Enterprise Accelerator
SEA Change helps social entrepreneurs develop sustainability, determine their meaningful social impact, and access the tools they need to successfully launch their business.
You shouldn’t have to make a lot of money before you can start doing good.
Entrepreneurs today often hear this advice: “Oh you need to go make money first, and then you make an impact.” But we've proven that you can engrain that into Day 1 of your business.
That’s what we’re here to help you do.

SEA Change
The Social Enterprise Accelerator
SEA Change cares about the well being of our communities.
We help social entrepreneurs reach more people in a meaningful way.
We support entrepreneurs in becoming a part of their local SE ecosystem by helping them:
develop a sustainable business model
solidify their meaningful social impact
access all the tools they need to successfully launch their venture.
Offering both in-person and online programs, we work to meet the needs of social entrepreneurs everywhere!
The Data-Proven Results
“SEA Change was instrumental in helping us transition from a loosely formed team… into getting the right foundation in place to test and launch our venture.”
Our Programming
We offer three delivery methods for our curriculum:
Signature Cohort
Our Signature Cohorts meet weekly to help ensure consistent progress. You’ll be working side by side with a group of passionate entrepreneurs and skilled advisors, helping you lay out your specific path forward.
Online
Group settings not your thing? Signature or Affiliate cohort not in your area? We have taken our amazing curriculum and created an online experience that you can participate in from the comfort of your own home, at your own pace.
Affiliate Partners
Want to run an in-person cohort in your city? Let’s make that happen. We will make our curriculum available to you so you can bring SEA Change onto your own turf (providing all the support you need along the way, of course!).
“Shatter probably wouldn’t still exist today if it wasn’t for SEA Change. We appreciate all the help, coaching, and support you have afforded us!”
Get Involved
Participant
Do you have a socially-minded business idea? Maybe you’ve gotten started but aren’t sure where to go next. Anyone from the idea stage through 3-5 years in business can benefit from our training.
Advisor
We use Advisors as both facilitators and mentors for our entrepreneurs. These volunteer opportunities span from in-person to online, short term and long. If you want to give back to our community, there’s definitely an opportunity for you to share your business expertise.
Funder
We build partnerships everywhere we go. SEA Change Partners provide funding, in-kind resources (think space, consulting, printing, etc…), their network of business people and/or entrepreneurs… any time, talent, or treasure you can think of, we’ll likely be able to put it to use to move our mission forward (please and thank you!).
