How SIFE Works

Working in teams, and mentored by a university adviser, SIFE students make a difference by taking what they learn in the classroom, and teaching it to others. Your real-world projects must hit at least one of the SIFE Criteria:

• Market Economics
• Personal Success Skills
• Entrepreneurship
• Financial Literacy
• Business Ethics
• Environmental Sustainability 

Projects work with a range of community groups, ranging from aspiring entrepreneurs, low income families, charities, the homeless and many, many more. The teams pass on their knowledge and equip these individuals with the skills and knowledge that they require to help them prosper. Additionally, one vital thing that all SIFE Teams must also consider is the sustainability of their projects as well as of the team as a whole, thus ensuring that future generations of their Team can continue their good work well into the future. 

SIFE students change the lives of others and in the process develop the valuable skills you will need to be successful in business, together with a sense of responsibility towards your community.
As they assume roles of leadership and influence, you will be the key to creating a better world for everyone.
