A Social Enterprise Committed to Doing Good


 

DOING THE RIGHT THING

Hunuvat is part of the new generation of social enterprises, which employ the energy and determination of the private sector, with the mission and passion of the community sector.

At least all 15 per cent of our gross income is donated back, in money, expertise and time, to the causes we believe in.

Actually, social enterprises have a long history rooted in the tithing found in many of the world’s main religions. We have been deeply influenced by the ancient Judaic practice of ma’aser rishon, Islamic Zakat, and Christian tithing practices (found especially in the English christian socialist movements, and surprisingly by many progressive members of the Church of the Latter Day Saints in the USA).

Hunuvat, however, is is no sense a religious-affiliated organization. We are devoted to supporting affirmative action in women’s leadership, people of color and the LGBT movement.

We also believe in transparency in business affairs, and thus, for the record, our areas of support area as follows:
