The stories surrounding us are of scarcity and suffering. It is easy to feel like you don’t have enough—time, talent, money, influence—to make a difference.

Our Summit tells a different story: one of abundant talent across global civil society, abundant resources if we work as a collective, and abundant paths towards a more just and vibrant world.

March 2 - 4, 2023, we’ll gather for our Global Summit in London to explore our theme “Unlock Abundance: Bold Approaches for a Shared Future.”

The 2023 Summit will be a call to action, to explore what the path forward can look like in practice, identify the resources needed for our shared future and, in our community of purpose, to ultimately unlock that abundance story that each of us can be a part of. See link in bio to learn more.

In a recent op-ed for @beaconcollab, TPW Managing Director of Europe Marylou Gourlay discusses why putting aside generational power dynamics is key for families to have open, vulnerable conversations that better focus on a shared desire to do good with their resources.

Given the challenges our world faces, "We’re being called at this time to leverage all of our resources, all of our intellect, all of our power," shared TPW Board Chair Elliott Donnelley at our 2022 Global Summit. As an investor and founding member of the California Small Enterprise Task Force (CASE), Elliott has increasingly focused on the nexus between investment for financial return, and investment for social and environmental impact.

It’s Independence Day in America, celebrating the passage of the Declaration of Independence by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776.

With the recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings, including overturning Roe vs Wade, top of mind for many in the U.S., we can’t think of a better time to learn how advocacy can strengthen democracy to affect social change. TPW will be hosting an Immersion Journey to Washington DC in September for our members to better understand how they can contribute to lasting change. Learn more by clicking on the link in our bio.

It’s Canada Day, historically a day to commemora

It’s Canada Day, historically a day to commemorate the anniversary of the Constitution Act, which consolidated three territories (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and the Province of Canada) into the single nation of Canada, in 1867.

TPW would like to recognize the day by sharing @theindigenousfoundation’s list of things you can do to uplift and honor all Indigenous people across Canada. Visit the link in @theindigenousfoundation bio for more.

Huge congratulations to one of TPW’s newest members and chef-owner of @birchandryesf, Anya El-Wattar (@anyaelwattar)! The restaurant became the first ever U.S.-basedRussian restaurant recognized by @michelinguide. “What a surprise when we saw the Michelin list of ‘best new discoveries’ for California. We didn’t expect to see Birch & Rye on it,” shared Anya. “There has never been another Russian restaurant in the US that has been included into the Michelin guide up until now.”

Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 case that established the constitutional right to an abortion, has been overturned. Which means abortion policy is going to fall to states. And abortion access in America will start to look very different.

In total, 26 states would enact abortion restrictions if Roe were reversed.
➡️ The 13 states above have enacted trigger laws, which are bans that go into effect automatically or by quick state action.
➡️ Four other states are certain or likely to attempt to ban abortion immediately.
➡️ Nine states could implement post-Roe restrictions with a court order.

On the other hand, 16 states and DC have laws in place that protect the right to an abortion. In states like California, Illinois, and New York, abortion would remain legal until fetal viability. And places like DC, Colorado, and Vermont would continue to allow the procedure at any stage of pregnancy. States are also working to pass new measures that would strengthen abortion protections. But reminder: there’s still a lot that’s up in the air. For more on what could be ahead for your state — and what America will look like in a post-Roe v. Wade world — head to the link in @theskimm bio.

Since 2011, @lisa.wolverton has worn many hats at TPW, from member and philanthropist, to Board member and Board Chair. Now, TPW is thrilled to share that Lisa will be heading our latest expansion as President of TPW’s office in #Canada.

“As a proud Canadian, it is the opportunity of a lifetime to lead TPW’s expansion as President,” shares Lisa. “Together we can significantly increase the capital deployed across all asset classes on behalf of all of our citizens.” Use the link in our bio to read Lisa's full statement to the TPW community.

“Generosity can’t be a substitute for justice.

“Generosity can’t be a substitute for justice. Those of us in these positions of power or wealth or privilege need to use that to push for a new system,” shared Montreal-based Sylvie Trottier, who sits on the board of Trottier Family Foundation, and whom we’re excited to welcome as a new TPW member.

As TPW’s expansion in Canada progresses, we can’t wait to see what Sylvie and the rest of our Canadian membership accomplishes. Watch her interview from our 2022 Global Summit in Toronto!

An estimated 80% of Canadian businesses are family

An estimated 80% of Canadian businesses are family-owned, representing 60% of Canada's GDP. Now more than ever, #Canada has a rare opportunity to efficiently deploy private money (which is often more risk-tolerant and nimble than government funding) to address social challenges quickly and meaningfully. While we have always had Canadian members in our Community, given the urgency of the moment, we are now formally launching a TPW office in #Vancouver, Canada. 🇨🇦

“Justice, for me, means elevating the lives—and the quality of life—for the bottom billion. And that links to resources, attention, and allyship leading to transformation,” shared TPW member Elizabeth Sheehan.

Elizabeth co-founded @care_2_communities, to deliver high-quality primary care to the people of Haiti, and strengthening healthcare systems is a throughline in her life and career. Her years of on-the-ground experience also reinforced an understanding of health as deeply intersectional. Her focus now is on reimagining entrenched systems, and bold philanthropic collaboration.
