From Lawyer To Social Entrepreneur, Fabrice Vil Is Coaching For A Better Society

Before social entrepreneurship became mainstream, lawyer Fabrice Vil took a leap of faith to help more young people gain access to opportunities. After two years of internal debate, he decided to leave his job at one of Quebec's largest law firms to focus on growing Pour 3 Points, the nonprofit organization that he had founded.

The organization, whose name roughly translates to going for three as a basketball metaphor, transforms sports coaches into life skills coaches to support the achievement of youth in underprivileged neighborhoods.

"It's a reference to not settling down, but going for what is best for youth, society, and humanity," said Fabrice Vil, founder of Pour 3 Points.
