Sol Escobar is a social entrepreneur and higher education specialist at the University of Cambridge. Her work is expansive although focuses on the humanitarian sector, and is dedicated to refugee wellbeing, empowerment and education. Having been selected as a United Nations women delegate in the UK, Sol’s passion for languages, cultures, and volunteering helps motivate her to grow her social enterprise. Our guest today has built this platform to enable women who are in a vulnerable position to ‘shop’ for free, through their catalogue of gifted women’s clothes and accessories.
In this episode, Sol explains the highs and lows of running a non-profit and how she has now managed to grow her team and build trust with her community of women in vulnerable communities.
