The Giving Pledge: 10 Years Later

Andrea Longton, Ebony Perkins, & Leah Fremouw Season 4 Episode 14

15 years ago, some of the world’s wealthiest promised to give away at least half their fortunes through the Giving Pledge. Over a decade later, how much have they really given? In this episode, we unpack a recent update on the pledge, explore why many billionaires fell short, and discuss why real change can’t wait for the ultra-rich. Instead, we share how communities and everyday people can drive impact now and why the power to shape the future might be closer than we think.
