• Scaling a pro bono program starts with internal storytelling. In one of the day’s breakout sessions, attendees shared their insights on running and scaling a global pro bono program. One theme emerged across sectors—sharing stories helps to build the essential “pro bono champions” who will fight for stronger programs. 
• One of the most important intangible benefits of pro bono: empathy. The importance of empathy played a large role throughout the day, revealing a connection between pro bono and our changing economy. 
• Pro bono can play a key role in the world’s most urgent issues—as long as it’s delivered in a strategic, community-focused way. At one of the day’s breakout sessions, experts discussed the fact that disasters are on the rise globally, and that delivering support in a strategic, community-focused way is necessary. This imperative is valuable regardless of issue area or crisis.
