Bill Frye, Director of Myrover-Reese Fellowship Homes rehabilitation center, knew for a fact that sustainability was a huge problem! He also recognized that doing more with less was not a viable option if the expectation was to offer more services to an increasing population of men and women. What he did know was that it was his responsibility to find key answers to some of the "How to" questions and solve them in a satisfactory way. While formulating a sustainability plan, he inadvertently began to use elements of "micro social entrepreneurship. " This case explores social entrepreneurship at both the macro and micro level. Students are invited to merge knowledge from various disciplines to seek out creative solutions for social and business problems.
