Session Title: Putting Compassion Into Action - Changing Social Philanthropy

Join the STAND team, including Vivienne Harr, STAND's 11-year-old Chief Inspiration Officer, for an inspiring discussion about the future of philanthropy and cause-based communities. Inspired by our Chairman, Biz Stone, we believe in the "triumph of humanity with a little help from technology.” Launching from there, we’ll take a deep dive into how engaged millennials can rally together to solve the world's biggest problems, how supporting a cause can move beyond the simply transactional to the truly social, and the value of STANDing together to make the world a better place. Cocktails to follow.

  • Company Description STAND is a mobile app and social community where you connect with people who inspire each other to put compassion into action. STAND didn't start as a company or a product; but as a promise and conviction in the heart of a little girl. According to our Chairman Biz Stone, "STAND delivers on the true promise of a connected world—people helping each other. It removes the friction between empathy and action and connects us with people we care about around the causes we love. Everyone needs a chance to be heard, to matter, and to make a positive impact in the world. STAND will be one of the most important apps we’ve seen in a long time.”
