Who Are We: Introducing Net Impact
Our story
Net Impact's Journey
Start
Who founded Net Impact?
UW Undergraduate Net Impact was founded in 2016 by Jennifer Louie, who's goal was to open a conversation about Corporate Social Responsibility in the Foster School of Business.
What is our impact?
In its short life, our chapter has made an even greater impact than we could have imagined. Hosting dozens of speakers and gaining membership from students all across campus, we are proud of the progress we've made and excited to see how we can keep achieving in the future.

What’s our goal?
Beyond providing professional guidance, our hope is to connect with students and allow them to find a community of like-minded peers who are just as passionate as they are. Our goal is to create an inviting environment where members feel comfortable participating in discussions and getting to know each other. We have begun participating in regular community service events and offering members social opportunities like hikes to allow them to connect on a greater level.
