Part 2: Scaling Social Impact in a Remote World
Speakers: Amanda Lenaghan, Cruise; Amy LeBold, NextRoll; Tina Lee, Dropbox

sf.citi talked to social impact leaders at Cruise, Dropbox, and NextRoll to learn how they’ve shifted their social impact strategies in the age of COVID-19 and remote work. With in-person volunteering relegated to our pre-pandemic past and workforces spread across the country, tech companies and nonprofits have had to adapt staples of their social impact programming to meet our new normal. Our speakers highlighted three unique approaches to social impact during the COVID-19 pandemic—many of which may mark a new frontier for social impact altogether.
