Paul Shoemaker is the Founding President of Social Venture Partners International and was the Executive Connector of SVP Seattle for 17 years. He's the Northwest’s leading expert on activating social change agents and a global thought leader on how individuals can be the most effective philanthropists.
Paul believes that we need more people committed to giving long-term to make social change happen. In his book, 'Can't Not Do,' Paul shares stories of individuals who have distilled passion into potent purpose and made tremendous differences on the pressing social issues that plague our time.
On the latest episode of The Wealth Confidant Podcast, Paul and I discuss how to zero in on a cause that is not only a critical area of need, but is also personally meaningful, in order to double-down on impact.
What's your "can't not do"?
If you need some inspiration, I encourage you to read 'Can't Not Do' for compelling stories of individuals who have made single-handed difference through philanthropic giving for social change.
