Dr Nancy O'reilly

Dr. Nancy welcomes Sara Lomelin, founding CEO of Philanthropy Together and a global catalyst for democratizing philanthropy. Lomelin shares her journey from her childhood in Mexico City to becoming a visionary leader, named to the TIME100 Philanthropy list and Forbes 50 Over 50 for her work expanding the power of collective giving. She explains how giving circles—groups of people who pool their resources to support causes they care about—are transforming who gets to be a philanthropist. Discussing how the "Five T's" of giving (time, treasure, talent, testimony, and ties) have inspired hundreds of thousands of people to create giving circles that contribute to their communities, Lomelin also details their donor education, women-led initiatives, and hyper-local impact, building a more equitable and community-driven world.
