Meet Maria. This CEO and Founder is passionate about uniting technology, philanthropy and social good to solve critical issues. She’s unapologetically talking to us about the negative impact that power dynamics have on major gifts, paid leave, cultures and benefits while sharing a reimagined strategy to shift philanthropic power dynamics. You know we’re here for this 🙌

Meet Jodi. Not only is she the Senior VP of Brand Marketing and Communication at theSkimm [insert swoon], she’s also a passionate advocate of building the movement powering paid leave reform in the U.S. She’s diving into the viral phenomenon of theSkimm’s #ShowUsYourLeave Campaign, and what nonprofits can do to pour into the moment. She’s also sharing how to build a massive global-movement-for-good with rabid fans and corporations alike. “Paid leave is not a benefit - it’s a human right.” [Hard Stop]

Meet Orli. She’s a founding leader of Paid Leave for the U.S. (PLUS), a nonprofit focused on winning paid family and medical leave. PLUS has helped win paid leave for more than 8M people, and Orli is bringing her knowledge, tools, case studies and adapting it all to the nonprofit sector. She’s also sharing how to create a work environment that promotes work-life balance for employees as we build a movement where personal life comes first.

Meet Evan. As the Stand Together Foundation Executive Director, he leads the charge on building replicable frameworks that disrupt, empower and accelerate doing good in the world. And he’s brought an entirely new playbook to the convo of compensating nonprofits - and compensating them big-time - and we want you to have it. We’ve all heard the phrase “I won’t make a lot in nonprofit, but I love having a career with meaning.” NO MORE. Tune in to get the frameworks, negotiation tips and script to help you build a strong case for better pay. Those who pour into others should be incentivized for their work - not handed scraps. Let’s elevate and equalize!

Meet Maggie. After spending her childhood serving in soup kitchens, she felt an awakening to bring more than a meal to those who were hungry - she wanted to bring dignity, civility and friendship too. Thus, A Place at the Table was born - Raleigh's first pay-what-you-can nonprofit cafe. She's reimagining a way to feed those in need and baking equity and community into the equation. Swoon 🥰👏
