Of interest to students and established professionals alike, the conversation will be wide ranging and inspiring to anyone hoping to create a more vibrant and resilient future through work in the non-profit or for-profit sectors.
Panelists
Amanda Medress, CSR & Sustainability
Edelman
Amanda works alongside Fortune 500 companies to create, implement, and communicate sustainability strategies on issues including supply chain, environmental target setting, and employee engagement. Prior to Edelman, Amanda worked for the Foresight Design Initiative. As a graduate of Oberlin College’s Environmental Studies and Creative Writing programs, Amanda co-founded the Student Experiment in Ecological Design, the first house in America to monitor its carbon footprint in real time. Additionally, Amanda has authored and illustrated an environmental children’s book, Quaid McQueen, Trash Machine, and is a certified conflict resolution practitioner. She is board co-chair for the Chicago chapter of Roosevelt Institute Pipeline.
Lisa Nigro, Founder & Co-Chair
The Inspiration Corporation
The Inspiration Corporation is a Chicago-based nonprofit that helps people who are affected by homelessness and poverty to improve their lives and increase self-sufficiency. Lisa recently launched a new non profit named Transform U which will be helping individuals with cognitive disabilities to become certified peer personal trainers.
Chuck Templeton, Co-Founder
OhSoWe.com
As a father, husband and concerned citizen of the planet, and as an entrepreneur (founder of OpenTable, Inc., NASDAQ (OPEN)), Chuck wanted to combine his passions and skills into an effort that would help bring neighborhoods together. He looks at how our economic system has evolved and believes that we have become too dependent on large corporations and too distant from our neighbors. In building OhSoWe.com, Chuck would like to find a way to help neighbors build bonds, save money and improve the quality of their life, while at the same time helping us be more sustainable. With the growing climate challenge, he believes that we are going to need to both mitigate further damage and adapt to the changes already baked into the environment. He thinks the best way to mitigate and adapt is with strong neighbor bonds and local neighborhoods.
