Maria: Glad to be with you, Spiffy! We want to help make investment work for communities so that people can live the lives they choose. We do this by giving information to charities, community organizations, and their donors to help them understand the difference they make in peoples' lives and figure out ways of having even more impact. We work with organizations helping people in many different ways, whether that is through sports, arts, mentoring, housing, financial support, or pretty much anything else you can imagine.
Alex: The Ali Forney Center addresses homelessness, food insecurity, poverty, medical/mental health and educational needs for homeless youth. Overall, we address the fight for equality, responding to the byproducts of hate, homophobia, and transphobia.

Adam: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! Laureus Sport for Good Foundation uses sport to change the world for the better. That could be using boxing in Brazil to get kids out of gangs, basketball in Brooklyn to help kids stay in school, or surfing in South Africa to help young people with their mental health. We are lucky enough to work with many of the world's greatest athletes to achieve those goals, including Chris Paul in the NBA and the tennis star Naomi Osaka. We work with many more as well. They all believe sport has the power to change the world.
