Enactus

The McCall MacBain Foundation is the official host and lead sponsor of the Enactus Leadership Summit. Enactus is a national charitable organization working on university and college campuses across Canada to develop leadership and entrepreneurship skills among young people who see business as a way to address social issues. Each year, Enactus runs a national competition of the interventions developed by teams from 77 campuses who have been mentored by business expert and faculty advisors. A Leadership Summit follows this competition, enabling approximately 100 incoming Enactus student leaders from all over the country to develop their team-building and leadership skills, share best practices, and forge collaborative relationships. The Foundation’s sponsorship opens up the opportunity to a couple of Enactus team members from low-income backgrounds each year.
