ewalsh • June 9, 2014

reSET, the Social Enterprise Trust, is delighted to be the beneficiary of a grant of $15,000 from Newman’s Own Foundation. The grant, which was awarded in May, will be used for two purposes: in support of reSET’s Fast Track program and the 2014 Social Enterprise Awards event. The Awards event will be held on November 3, 2014 at The Society Room in Hartford. Fast Track is a custom-designed program offered to social enterprises that are in operation and generating revenues to help them overcome specific challenges and barriers to their growth.

Newman’s Own Foundation, founded by philanthropist and actor Paul Newman gives away all profits from the sale of Newman’s Own products to charities around the world. Since 1982, Paul Newman and Newman’s Own Foundation have donated more than $400 million.

reSET is grateful to Newman’s Own Foundation for this gift, and for their generous support over a number of years. Gifts like this one are crucial to accomplishing our work, and we consider ourselves lucky to have Newman’s Own Foundation as our supporter and partner.

Transform Your Business This Fall: Applications Open for reSET's Retail Incubator and Digital Marketing Mastermind Programs Hartford, CT – July 17, 2024 – reSET, the Hartford-based entrepreneur support organization committed to nurturing businesses with a social mission, is excited to announce that applications are now open for two separate programs designed to help entrepreneurs grow with impact: the Retail Incubator and the Digital Marketing Mastermind. Both programs are set to run this fall, providing invaluable resources and mentorship to early-stage and established entrepreneurs alike. Applications close at midnight on July 21, with classes set to start mid-August and run through October. “Both of these programs were developed because of demand from our alumni and local entrepreneurs,” said Sarah Bodley, Executive Director of reSET. “The Retail Incubator has been popular with Hartford-area founders preparing for fall and holiday markets, or opening their own storefronts. We developed the Digital Marketing Mastermind to help local entrepreneurs build an online business presence and stand out in the online world.” Retail Incubator The Floor-Plan Retail Business Incubator is a partnership between reSET and Hartford-based Breakfast Lunch & Dinner, a community venture-building studio. Now in its fourth year, the program is designed to support product-based businesses in their stages of entrepreneurship. Participants will learn to understand customer needs, define pricing strategies, address key legal and financial topics, all to prepare their businesses for fall and winter markets. Entrepreneurs will gain insights from industry experts, access a supportive community, and receive practical tools to enhance their business acumen. For more information and to apply, please visit https://www.resetco.org/retail-incubator . Digital Marketing Mastermind The Digital Marketing Mastermind is tailored for entrepreneurs who already have a business and are looking to elevate their digital marketing efforts. This program will provide advanced strategies to boost online presence, engage with target audiences, and convert engagement into sales. Participants will learn from seasoned marketing professionals and peers, gaining the knowledge and skills necessary to thrive in the digital marketplace.
