About Enactus
Enactus (En-act-us) is an international nonprofit organization that works with business and higher education leaders to mobilize students to develop outreach projects that improve the quality of life and standard of living for those in need. The goal of each project is to develop strong relationships with businesses and to present projects at annual regional and national Enactus competitions.

PBA’s Enactus Team
PBA has an active — and successful — Enactus team, one that has a rich history of winning the regional Enactus competitions and advancing to the national expositions. Projects are judged on creativity, innovation and effectiveness.

Past projects have included:     

• Developing a business plan for a Moroccan family so that they could become self sufficient, which included a trip to Nouaceur outside of Casablanca to collaborate with a SIFE team there and visit the family’s home.
• Creating a scholarship program committed to empowering high school students to achieve their academic dreams.
• Demonstrating the importance of understanding the market, investing skills, and ethical trading practices through a competitive online stock-trading contest.
• Developing a documentary promoting Palm Beach County’s strategic plan to end homelessness.
