Go behind the scenes of three standout Halo Award Finalist campaigns—from advocacy and policy to tech-for-good and point-of-sale fundraising—and hear what it actually took to bring them to life.

Leaders from NationSwell, Yubico, and No Kid Hungry will share how they built and scaled initiatives that meaningfully engage communities and employees. Led by The Halo Awards Emerging Leader of the Year, this session will unpack what worked, what didn’t, and why.

This conversation goes beyond the highlight reel. Speakers will dig into the real challenges behind these efforts—where they faced resistance, how they secured internal buy-in, and what they would do differently.

Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how to:

• Build internal and external alignment from the start
• Design participation models that are simple, scalable, and effective
• Translate impact into business value that resonates with stakeholders
• Move from one-off campaigns to more sustained, strategic initiatives

The session will include a moderated discussion followed by audience Q&A.
