The next generation of pro bono is taking shape as today’s leaders turn emerging challenges and opportunities into a vision for the field’s future.

With IGNITE 2026 coming up, CEO Cat Ward connected with leaders from across the nonprofit, philanthropic, corporate, and technology sectors to explore the shifts they’re seeing firsthand and the ideas they believe could unlock greater impact.

Their perspectives point to a powerful opportunity: to make expertise more accessible, help nonprofits harness emerging technology responsibly, and recognize pro bono service as both a driver of nonprofit impact and a meaningful way to develop the workforce of the future.

Hear from Akilah Watkins of Independent Sector, Marnie Webb of TechSoup, Patrina Pettry of Wells Fargo and Julie Gehrki of Walmart Foundation for a preview of the bold ideas and cross-sector conversations shaping IGNITE.
