The urgency of now

Truist Foundation President Lynette Bell had the honor of being a session leader at this year’s Social Innovation Summit in Chicago. This annual gathering of the best and brightest minds in social impact—including our Inspire Award finalists Centro Community Partners and Immigrants Rising—provided an opportunity for networking and hearing from change-makers like Al Roker and Dr. Chelsea Clinton.

Lynette kicked off her general session about “The Urgency of Now” with an inspiring speech on how Truist Foundation is driving intentional and critical impact in our communities—right now.
