Join Stanford in Arts & Entertainment - NY and the Stanford Women’s Network - NY for an evening at the Leesa Dream Gallery in SoHo on Thursday, June 9 as we learn about two rapidly growing for-profit organizations with unique social impact initiatives.
The Leesa Dream Gallery is the creation of two innovative and forward thinking companies, Leesa and ArtLifting, which both focus on profit and purpose. Leesa, one of Forbes' "20 Startups to Watch in 2016" is a new direct-to-consumer mattress company that has donated over 5,000 mattresses to the homeless or at-risk. ArtLifting provides homeless, formerly homeless and disabled artists a platform to sell their art and earn a life-changing income.
Whether you’re an artist, an art enthusiast, a student, a lawyer, a banker, a philanthropist, or simply looking to meet new people, join us for drinks and light refreshments on Thursday, June 9 from 6:30-8:30pm at Leesa Dream Gallery at 112 Wooster St (between Prince St & Spring St) as we discuss how to incorporate philanthropy into for-profit ventures.
Friends, co-workers, and non-Stanford affiliated guests are all welcome. Capacity is limited - register today! Tickets are only $10.
