What is the Ashoka Support Network?  

Ashoka offers a wealth of resources, but the most valuable are Ashoka Fellows— the world’s leading social entrepreneurs. The Ashoka Support Network, founded in 2004, is a community of +300 members who provide their expertise, financial support, networks, and contacts to accompany these social entrepreneurs across the world.  By connecting and interacting with them, ASN members gain inspiration and empowerment to shape a better world.
