About Us

Enactus is an international organization that brings together student, academic and business leaders who are committed to using the power of entrepreneurial action to enable progress around the world. Guided by faculty advisors and business experts, participating students form teams on their campuses to create and implement community projects that empower people to improve their quality of life and standard of living. The experience not only transforms lives, it helps students develop the kind of talent and perspective that are essential to becoming effective, values-driven leaders. Founded in 1975, Enactus has active programs on more than 1,700+ college and university campuses across 36 countries, involving more than 69,000+ students. As an Enactus student, you'll be a participant in one of the largest global student organizations. You will play an active role in shaping the history of your generation and know that you have helped to change the world. A unique aspect of Enactus is that you and your peers get to take complete ownership of your team. You get to decide what projects to conduct, who to work with, how to coordinate projects, and how much time to invest in projects. By participating in Enactus, you are considered by many business and community leaders as among the "best of the best" in your area. Companies understand the integral role that your Enactus participation has played in your development and some may even recruit at Enactus events. Enactus competitions offer a critical link between you and the job market. In addition to potential internship and permanent job opportunities, there are some occasions in which scholarships, awards, and other forms of recognition are also available to students from businesses that partner with Enactus.
