Carl Nassib: NFL star to philanthropy entrepreneur
- Massive wealth transfer to younger generations over the next five to ten years is projected to increase philanthropy and mobile donation volume, which is expected to triple over the last seven years.
- Current trends of decreasing donors and volunteers are anticipated to be reversed through modernized infrastructure that bridges the technological gap between older nonprofit leaders and mobile-savvy youth who prefer payment methods like Apple Pay and Google Pay.
- NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) regulations are expected to advance student athletes' financial management skills four years earlier, allowing them to make mistakes with amounts between $5,000 and $50,000 to learn before careers involve sums ranging from $500,000 to $25 million.
- Future business retention and acquisition strategies will increasingly depend on empowering employees and attracting Gen Z customers and workers who prioritize social impact and inclusivity.
- The Trevor Project is expected to continue providing crisis intervention and statistics, with the presence of an affirming adult anticipated to reduce the risk of self-harm by 40%.
- Advocacy is required to ensure high school and college sports cultivate inclusivity, thereby preventing LGBTQ+ athletes from leaving the sports ecosystem and creating a future where they are not afraid of persecution.
- Financial literacy education is expected to be necessary for the NFL to address athletes' discomfort with complex concepts like compounding interest and to counter predatory agency practices in the current NIL environment.
