TRIIBE Changemaker Summit | www.triibe.us
August 2, 2025 | 1:00-5:00 PM | Newlab, Brooklyn
Cocktails, Beverages, Food Provided | Art Auction
Imagine if you could hire someone with experience coordinating over 1,000 or even 10,000 volunteers. Now imagine they're still in college.
TRIIBE's three-year program equips our cohort of founders with the skills & support needed to continue their nonprofits post-grad. And if their path shifts, they carry with them what matters most: the ability to build, sustain, & lead with purpose.
Taking place from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM, with food & drinks (cocktails sponsored by Barrelsmith & non-alcoholic beverages by Bear Maple Farms), this main event will feature a fireside chat & two dynamic panels, showcasing our four college nonprofit founders mixed with long-standing leaders sharing real-life lessons on balancing urgency with isolation & scale with purpose.
Schedule Of Events:
1:00 - 1:20 PM Welcome Refreshments
1:20 - 1:30 PM Opening Speech
1:30 - 1:45 PM Keynote Speaker
2:00 - 2:30 PM First Panel: Mobilizing Communities for Compassionate Action
2:45 - 3:15 PM Fireside Chat: Fundraising & Communication in this Political Landscape
3:30 - 4:00 PM Second Panel: Education as a Tool for Social Mobility & Transformation
4:00 - 5:00 PM Networking, Art Auction
