Rally Makers Are Orlando’s Innovative Problem Solvers
Rally Makers Are
Innovators who believe in the potential of entrepreneurial approaches. They are philanthropically minded, but don’t want to drop their business sense on the ground as they work to solve problems. They’re excited by the idea of organizations who can sustain themselves while they address real social, environmental or economic problems. They are innovative, generous, impact-minded business leaders who are energized by a collective effort that will accelerate smart entrepreneurs addressing all sorts of intractable issues.
Rally Makers Do
Rally Makers are subject matter experts presenting to the fellows as part of the accelerator program or meet one-on-one to address specific topics of expertise. Rally Makers tackle the challenge of meeting twice a month, with one of our world-class social entrepreneur fellows working on the front lines as a mentor. Some Rally Makers are donors and advocates for the Rally in the community. All are critical to Rally’s success.
Rally Makers Give
Rally Makers are individuals who see the wisdom in combating intractable issues with organizations that earn their revenue. They understand the importance of giving strategically of their time, skill and money to make the largest impact. When then pool their investment with all the Rally Makers, they realize they’re impacting important issues with sustainable solutions in their backyard and around the world. Rally Makers invest a minimum of $5,000 annually.
