About
The Purpose Project was born when Matt Bennett had a realization: the world changing non-profit leaders of the 60s and 70s are starting to retire, so where is their wisdom going to go? He wanted to make sure the next generation of social leaders embrace the lessons of yesterday by capturing the stories and the knowledge of their predecessors. This is the concept of The Purpose Project. Matt and co-director, Michelle, seek the stories of retiring influential change-makers and offer venues for the generations to have a dialogue focused on advice, mutual successes and fears, and lessons learned.
