Some of the key quotes from the presentation were:

“Raising money and awareness is important, but to create a lasting impact you need to create a relationship that is ongoing.”

“How do you do service? Do you have to always give money? Investing your time is just as important.”

“When you are doing service, doing something that you are passionate about will create impact.”

“Make sure you <take action> because you care about it and you love it. “
