LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN Dear Members and Friends,

Kees Kruythoff President, North America Unilever Chairman, Enactus Worldwide Board of Directors

We are at the precipice of a historic time at Enactus. In 2015, the United Nations launched the Sustainable Development Goals to end extreme poverty, fight inequality and injustice and fix climate change by 2030. The 69,000+ student action leaders of Enactus will be in the prime of their careers in 2030. But today, they are already taking action toward the 17 Global Goals. And Enactus has put in place a bold 2020 Dynamic Action Plan to keep the organization on track for the coming years. Enactus is playing a vital role in giving university students an amazing launch pad, fueled by entrepreneurial action, to create a better world for us all. It’s working—we’ve directly impacted more than 1.17 million lives this year alone through business innovation that creates real social impact. This is one of the most exciting times to be a part of Enactus. We’re on a trajectory to see explosive growth and I’m proud to help lead the organization over the next two years.
