Join us for a unique conference experience – a fireside chat with our 2024 keynote, Dan Pallotta. The session will be moderated by media veteran Diane Smith.
Dan Pallotta is a pioneer in the global effort to transform the way our culture evaluates the character and impact of nonprofit organizations. His iconic TED Talk on philanthropy, “Uncharitable: The Way We Think About Charity is Dead Wrong,” has been viewed more than 5.5 million times. The TED community voted it the most persuasive TED talk of all time. The documentary film “Uncharitable,” based on Dan’s life work, was an Oscar nominee in 2024.
Dan shares desperately important ideas on reshaping charities, the nonprofit industry, and even the way we dream. He challenges nonprofit executives, students, philanthropists, institutional funders, donors, and anyone who cares about the great causes of our time, to change the way we think about charities and the strategies needed to truly create the change we want to see in the world.
