The Entrepreneurs Foundation of the Southeast, Inc. (EFSE) is a nonprofit organization comprised of entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, investment bankers, accountants, attorneys, bankers, consultants, corporate leaders and public relations and marketing firms who have come together to encourage entrepreneurs and their companies to support community needs.

The mission of EFSE is to continuously improve the quality of our communities by applying the energy, innovation, resources and wealth of entrepreneurial companies and their employees to support community needs. EFSE addresses the two resource constraints that early-stage companies face when evaluating their community involvement plans: lack of cash and lack of time. We are creating the critical link between entrepreneurial companies and their communities by providing innovative volunteer and fund raising programs.
