They are focused on creating a world where social entrepreneurs have affordable access to technology, customers, distribution, and all other resources they need to grow a successful and sustainable business."

Beyond its platform, Roozt is devoted to helping teach social entrepreneurial values and skills to today's youth so that they can grow into progressive business leaders of tomorrow. Through its Mission: Possible program, Roozt has partnered with the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship to teach low-income urban youth all across the United States the fundamentals of for-profit social entrepreneurship--inspiring, empowering, and incubating each student's triple bottom line business plan to help turn their concepts into reality.
