And more importantly, why do we treat philanthropy as something to do at the end of life, rather than something we can begin now?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"314\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2T22bpYU4_U\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">He reminds us of a simple yet profound truth: \u201cPhilanthropy is love for humankind.\u201d It\u2019s not just about money\u2014it\u2019s about time, skills, creativity, and the will to act for others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">From a teenager sent by his father to India instead of Ibiza, to a battlefield doctor who was wounded in war, and now an innovator using virtual reality to train emergency responders in conflict zones\u2014James\u2019s journey is living proof that anyone can be a philanthropist if they choose to dedicate their talents to the right cause.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">His talk is also a call to the tech industry: What if Google, Meta, or Amazon declared that every employee was a philanthropist in their job description? What if every technology product was required to solve a real social problem, not just meet a \u201cmarket demand\u201d?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">James isn\u2019t selling technology. He\u2019s inviting us to use technology\u2014and any tools we have\u2014to redefine the values of work, business, and giving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Philanthropy, he says, is no longer a noble title reserved for the rich at the end of their careers. It\u2019s the daily act of each of us\u2014starting now, with our work, our time, and our skills.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">And that, he concludes, is how we can all change the world.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":29908,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"document_topic":[275],"document_cat":[271],"document_genre":[],"class_list":["post-29833","document","type-document","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","document_topic-charity","document_cat-tai-lieu-doc-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/quykhoisututam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document\/29833","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/quykhoisututam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/quykhoisututam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/document"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quykhoisututam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/quykhoisututam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29833"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"document_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quykhoisututam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document_topic?post=29833"},{"taxonomy":"document_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quykhoisututam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document_cat?post=29833"},{"taxonomy":"document_genre","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quykhoisututam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document_genre?post=29833"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
