The HBSCP is one of the oldest alumni organizations in the country, and represents more than 1,100 HBS alumni in the greater Philadelphia region. The Harvard Business School Club of Philadelphia Social Enterprise Initiative began in 1993. The Social Enterprise Initiative focuses on executive education -- finance, operations, marketing and strategy -- of the Philadelphia Region's nonprofit leaders. Over the last seven years, the Club has sponsored seven MBA students in summer intern positions in five Philadelphia-area nonprofit organizations. In 2001, the HBSCP began sponsoring and sending nonprofit CEOs to the Harvard Business School's one-week nonprofit management course. 14 local leaders have now attended the course. The success of this program led to the annual locally based conference focused on nonprofit leadership development.
