Regent Donors Equip Students To Embrace Entrepreneurship
in a Global Competition To Help Others.
For nearly 50 years, Enactus (“Entrepreneurial Action in Us”) has helped educate young people around the globe about how to use innovation and entrepreneurship to solve some of the world’s most pressing problems. Generous financial support from friends like you has helped Regent University’s Enactus team experience success and recognition on a national and global level.
Under the leadership of faculty advisor Olga Moseley, students from the College of Arts & Sciences (CAS) won the Team Spirit Award at the 2024 Enactus USA Expo in May. One month later, at the Enactus-sponsored “Action with Africa Challenge,” Regent was the only team from a United States university to earn a “Top 3” spot in the competition’s “early-stage distinction.”
“As a team, we are both humbled and excited to be recognized on the international level for Project ZAM,” Moseley says. “It’s an honor to witness the groundbreaking concepts that these students generate when integrating innovation with a heart for service.”
In May, Regent Enactus submitted “Project ZAM: Zambian Aquaculture Ministry” for consideration in the Africa competition. As part of a collaborative effort, CAS students are working to establish a self-sustaining community through tilapia fish farming. They’re helping MASY Ministries overcome supply-chain issues—and provided an initial design for a solar-powered solution to end dependency on unreliable local power grids.
An impact statement on the Enactus website insists, “Investing in students who take entrepreneurial action for others creates a better world for us all.” Project ZAM member Emily Lindgren (CAS ’27) agrees that your generous gifts are crucial to their continued success.
“I’m so grateful to the donors who help make this opportunity possible. My work with Enactus has grown my research and communication skills with priceless real-world experience serving those in need,” she says. “Through projects within the program, there are also amazing opportunities to share the light of Christ.”
“Every single project is full of miracles and testimonies. It’s just amazing,” Moseley adds. “We could do so much more to take this program to the next level. With additional donor support, we can exponentially open doors for our students and propel their projects forward.”
