SILC

Social Impact Leadership Coalition (SILC) is a “network of networks” comprised of fourteen national non-profit organizations that focus on socially responsible business (people, profit and planet) and issues of economic justice.

SILC works to expand our ability to share best practices and build strong partnerships among networks of business leaders and social entrepreneurs, increase the relevance of socially responsible business practices in communities of color, and expand the impact of programs that support diverse entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders.
