I’ve received great feedback from the many connections I made at #SIS24. It’s been a pleasure to hear so many of you found the session I hosted on The Urgency of Now valuable—a topic that is critical to us all. I was delighted to share the Social Innovation Summit stage with the panelists, performers and other session leaders.  For those who missed it or are curious about how #TruistFoundation is working to break down barriers, take a few minutes to watch the video of my opening remarks below:

What an honor to attend the Social Innovation Summit with key partners and colleagues in Chicago! We got to hear from exciting leaders (including Al Roker, Colton Underwood and many others). The highlight was diving deeper into Corporate-NGO partnerships to make an impact on climate change, biodiversity, and healthy communities.

Breakout sessions have always been a crowd favorite at Social Innovation Summit events, and #SIS24 was no different. Thanks to organizations like General Motors, Sanofi, Best Buy, the Walton Family Foundation, and more for sharing such engaging impact insights.

Last week, I was honored to represent the Redstone Family Foundation by speaking on a panel at the Social Innovation Summit alongside two brilliant leaders-- Lara Littlefield, Executive Director for Partnerships and Programs at the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation, and Katherine F. Pickus, Vice President - Sustainability and Global Impact at Tyson Foods, who moderated the conversation. Together, we discussed the power of private philanthropy and how our respective organizations drive meaningful change. I was particularly proud to highlight our partnerships with the Boston YMCA's Building Togetherness Program and American Jewish Committee (AJC) Atlanta's Black & Jewish Teen Initiative - two amazing programs that are fostering unity and building cross-cultural understanding and relationships for young people from preschool to high school. Events such as the Social Innovation Summit remind me how lucky I am to work in the philanthropic space. It was incredible to see and hear from so many people around the country dedicated to social impact and change.
