"Alex gives plenty of examples here of 100% for Purpose companies that are putting their money where their mouth is. As for the rest of us, it's time to start reading more labels to find out what these companies are all about, what percentage is used for good, and if these companies are holding up their end of the bargain." Thank you TED Business podcast host Modupe Akinola for sharing our CEO & President Alexandra Amouyel's TED Talk! 🎧 Listen: https://lnkd.in/ei32MVxJ Learn more about 100% for Purpose Club™: 100forpurpose.org #100forpurpose #businessforgood #philanthrophy Humanitix
