Description
-- About Our Guest -- Nina: I have always strived for the next step on the corporate ladder, but when I finally was head of marketing for a top 100 Swedish company I realized that the corporate world wasn’t making me happy in the way I once thought it would. I resigned to pursue a full-time career in photography. Nina: Then between 2012 and 2016, I embarked on a documentary photography project about the life of a lion pride in Kenya. During this time, I faced the reality of the dwindling lion population - that there were only about 20.000 lions left and that the population had halved in the past 20 years. From then on, I became involved with non-profit organizations that were working for the protection of our planet. Nina: While in Sweden in 2018 I founded Milkywire - a new tech platform for impact. By developing digital tools and modern infrastructure for the charity sector Milkywire connects donors globally to carefully audited civil society organizations working to solve the most pressing planetary problems facing humanity. Through the Milkywire app, website, API tools, employee giving program and more users can discover, connect, and donate to projects around the world fighting the climate crisis, biodiversity crisis, and pollution crisis. Milkywire provides a unique and engaging experience by allowing users to support local grassroots projects directly, connect with the experts working in the field, and see proof of the impact by following their progress through weekly video updates on the Milkywire app. -- Follow Milkywire -- Website: https://Milkywire.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/milkywire/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/milkywire Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/milkywire LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/18771267/admin/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@milkywire?
