I think it’s safe to say that a lot of us, when asked about our ideal career, would say it is one where our efforts play into a grander cause, giving back to society while also paying the bills. Seeing the news roll in everyday with reports and footage of injustice and inequality around the world, we want to do something about it, beyond throwing money at the problem in hopes that it will be put to good use. When looking to volunteer though, we often get stuck finding the time or the right opportunity, especially one that can involve the kids. Our guest today, Jessica Jackley, has cracked the code to incorporate financial inclusion, the sharing economy, and social justice, resulting in furthering entrepreneurial dreams and spreading knowledge and practice to the next generation. Over the past decade, Jessica has risen as an entrepreneur, investor, and speaker. She is the founder of the crowdfunding site for micro-enterprises, Kiva, cofounder of the early-stage venture capital firm Untapped Capital and founder of her latest project, Alltruists, an at-home, kid-friendly volunteer project aimed towards families.  Jessica’s work has been widely recognized by The Economist’s No Boundaries Innovation Award, Fast Company’s Most Influential Women in Tech, Silicon Valley Forum’s Visionary Award and more. Additionally, Jessica teaches Social Entrepreneurship at the Marshall School of Business at USC. Jessica lives in Los Angeles with her husband, author Reza Aslan, and their four young children.
