Scott Center for Social Entrepreneurship

We're back in the science garden at Hillbrook, this time for an exciting conversation with 6th-Grade English teacher Jenn Gingery and a group of awesome 6th-grade students. After reading Seedfolks by Paul Fleischman, students learned more about the impact of community gardens before working in teams to design their own. The Scott Center team helped choose the winners for this project, and we were blown away by the designs that included a specific focus on a Sustainable Development Goal. The winning teams got to chose an organization to receive a Scott Center donation. We are thrilled to speak with Ms. G and these students to hear more about this project, which helps us to imagine the world as it might be!

Join us for an unedited conversation inspired by UN Sustainable Development Goals number 4 - quality education - and number 5 - gender equality. Scott Center Founding Director Annie Makela is joined by Hillbrook's Acting Head of School Colleen Schilly and Hillbrook CFO/COO Margaret Randazzo.

This episode was recorded in Hillbrook School's beautiful science garden. In addition to a stimulating and thoughtful conversation about leadership, women in work and education, astute listeners will hear the sounds of school happening in the background.

In this episode, host Annie Makela teams up with long-time collaborator with the Scott Center for Social Entrepreneurship, Bill Selak, along with new Associate Director of the Scott Center, Matt Callahan, to enumerate and elucidate the Six Pillars of Social Entrepreneurship. Can you name all six?

Here they are:
