What is the well?
Honest dialogue
with a strong
bias for action.
The Well will enable social entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and other social impact leaders to take stock and lay the groundwork for us to collectively strengthen our nation as we approach America’s 250th birthday in 2026. Together, we will listen, learn, and create brave spaces for honest dialogue with a strong bias for action. We will prioritize our health and well-being as changemakers so we can prepare for the work ahead. We will also make time for joy, fun, and celebration.
How do we build the well?
Through Co-Design
New Profit is honored to collaborate with a visionary group of social entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and other social impact leaders from across sectors to design programming and content for The Well. The co-design group represents a wide range of viewpoints and experiences, helping us advance our larger aspiration of building a multiracial, intergenerational, cross-sector coalition for change.

For social entrepreneurs
