Colombiere Social Enterprises

COLOMBIERE SOCIAL ENTERPRISES

Our parish is supporting an exciting new initiative to engage young adults in the mission of the Church.

What is Colombiere Soical Enterprises?

Colombière is a not-for-profit charity that facilitates and supports the set up, running and delivery of social enterprise projects run by our partner communities within Jesuit and Catholic networks.

Our community of young adults under the guidance of mentors here and overseas volunteer their professional skills in service to our partners through developing materials such as business plans, risk analysis and budgeting as well as connecting them to funding opportunities.

Colombiere is a catalyst for providing opportunities for young adults to explore their sense of purpose through faith and service to the community.

Saint Claude La Colombière (1641–1682) was a Jesuit priest and spiritual director known for promoting devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Our Vision

Colombiere’s vision is to improve social inclusion and economic outcomes for disadvantaged communities by developing and supporting social enterprises to become financially sustainable.
