Invitation to Impact: Lighting the Way Together
Athenaeum Hotel Parlor (Lecture) & CWC House (Reception)
Thursday, July 2nd at 4:00PM
Icons and instigators are often remembered for what they built, but just as important is how openly they share it. In this reflective and engaging talk, Wendy Steele draws from her book Invitation to Impact and her success building Impact100, a global, women-powered giving movement rooted in collaboration, transparency, and shared purpose.
Wendy will share insights into the science of generosity, with an emphasis on how generosity can build bridges in a disconnected world. She will reflect on how passing on values, not just valuables, strengthens families and communities, ensuring that what we learn and live continues to light the way forward for others. Grounded in experience and optimism, this conversation honors women who choose to instigate change through connection, purpose, and shared action.
