Enable Social Enterprises Limited
Enable Social Enterprises Limited (ABN 52165413776) is an Australian not-for-profit social enterprise founded in 2013 to address unemployment and digital inequity through job training, IT recycling, and affordable technology distribution.

Mission and Operations
The enterprise focuses on breaking cycles of unemployment by providing work-integrated learning programs in IT repair, e-commerce, and logistics.

- Distributed 1,496 devices via 104+ community organizations^2^.
- Mobilized 14,726 volunteer hours to support its mission^2^.
Governance
Led by founder Julie McKay, the organization has a board including Chairperson Jeremy Johnson and operations lead Gurmukh Singh^2^. It partners with philanthropic organizations such as the Lord Mayors Charitable Foundation and Helen Macpherson Smith Trust, but operates without government employment or training subsidies[^2^][^3^].
Recognition
Enable has been praised for its "exceptional" sustainability outcomes by CEO of Sustainability Victoria and highlighted by Business Victoria for its innovative social procurement model[^1^][^3^].
