At a time when public trust in the third sector is at all time low, how do we alter mindsets to normalise and standardise the behaviour of giving? Taking the keynote slot at Founders Pledge Forum 2018, Richard Reed speaks frankly and passionately about the transformative effects that philanthropy has had upon his life, upon his business, and upon the world, and, most critically, ardently insists that charity is not broken, and if done right, has the power to do immense good.
