Join us for a virtual information session about the Pledge 1% movement, corporate giving initiatives, and what taking the pledge has meant for Rob Phocas, Director of Corporate Social Responsibility at AvidXchange (and what it could mean for you and your organization). If you've been curious about the movement that counts companies such as Canva, Blackbird, Box, and Cruise among its members, come along and have your questions answered by our Member Impact team.
Â
We will cover:
• The history of the Pledge 1% movement
• Types of pledges and what they mean
• What joining the movement means for you and your organization
• Opportunity for Q&A with our team
Fighting climate change and delivering transformational development to underserved communities is my passion. Over the course of a rich, thirty-year career, I have had the opportunity to work in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors. This far-reaching work has allowed me to gather in the homes of underserved community members, the board rooms of Fortune 500 companies and the halls of government. It is my conviction that if we build with the community, instead of building for the community, we will create successful outcomes.
A passionate changemaker with more than 25 years of leadership in crafting strategic programs, I thrive on turning great ideas into actionable impact. At Pledge 1%, I focus my energy on helping our corporate members convert their commitments into meaningful social impact. Leveraging a digital-first approach, I empower our members at scale to amplify their giving potential, create lasting change, and grow the Pledge 1% movement.
