According to Melanie Schnoll-Begun, Managing Director and Head
of Philanthropy Management at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management,
“Entrepreneurs are the creative minds behind some of the world’s
most innovative and transformational ideas. Social entrepreneurs
are a growing cohort amongst them and the impact these individuals
have on society can be profound. For example, Deepak Chopra has
worked to prevent youth violence by teaching the concepts of
mindfulness and wellbeing to adolescents so they can help mitigate
the risk of dangerous situations escalating to violence.”
“The Chopra Foundation is dedicated to the future of wellbeing
for the entire global community through our commitment to helping
to create a more peaceful, just, sustainable, happier and healthy
world,” said Deepak Chopra, Founder and Chairman of the Chopra
Foundation. “We are devoted to the development of youth through
leadership programs that teach conscious lifestyle choices to
dynamically reduce crime and violence. Additionally, we have
partnered with Food for Education which sends 1.3 million children
to school while providing a daily meal as an incentive for
receiving an education.”
“The circumstances of social injustice are intolerable and the
solutions are complex, requiring the strategic investment of time,
talent and treasure,” said Kevin Trapani, President and CEO of The
Redwoods Group. “We’re grateful to Morgan Stanley and Perspectives
in Philanthropy for featuring the role of social enterprises in
improving the global community and for telling the story of our
work to reduce adverse childhood events, like sexual abuse, through
The Redwoods Group.”
“Morgan Stanley is committed to assisting individuals and
institutions scale their philanthropic endeavors,” said Steven
Rosandich, Vice President at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. “In
addition to events, networking collaboratives, and an array of
advisory services, one unique way we accomplish this is by
highlighting their extraordinary stories and achievements in
Perspectives in Philanthropy.”
