114: Making Change through Partnerships: The Role of CSR/Social Impact Practitioners in the Nonprofit Ecosystem with Kavell Brown


Listen Later

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Social Impact practitioners have a special role in not only their organization’s well-being, but their community’s well-being. How? They are catalysts who can use their organization’s resources to create meaningful change. 


That’s exactly what Kavell Brown has been doing for years. Kavell is the Social Impact Partnerships Manager at LinkedIn, where he manages non-profit and philanthropic partnerships across North America. Kavell seeks to deploy and leverage the company's assets to help non-profits scale their impact and make economic opportunity, healing and wholeness available to all. 


In this episode, Kavell shines light on the role of CSR/Social Impact practitioners in the non-profit sector as well as his approach to philanthropy and life. He shares his candid thoughts on what non-profits, corporations, and CSR departments can do to create impactful volunteer engagement and implement change in our communities. We do not hold back as we authentically explore the role for each of us in building the world we want to see.
