In just two days we're making history—and you're invited to tune in.
The second Obama Foundation Summit kicks off on Sunday evening. This marks the first time participants from across the Foundation's inaugural programs will be in one room, including the amazing class of Obama Fellows that I'm honored to be a part of (you can learn more about my work here!)
I'm so thrilled to stand alongside these leaders here in Chicago to share the progress, challenges, and solutions we've uncovered in our work.
But our community is made up of millions of individuals around the world, more than could ever fit in one room. That's why we're inviting you to participate online.
Sign up to join our livestream and you won't miss a minute: We'll send you a reminder right before we go live.
We all want a better future for our communities, even if we seek different ways of getting there. This year's Summit celebrates that shared goal, focusing on the theme Common Hope. Uncommon Stories.
Together, we can advance the conversation about what community leadership in action means today, developing solutions to our shared challenges.
We'll be discussing a wide range of topics, including how emerging leaders can ensure their work doesn't just benefit their communities, but is meaningfully informed by them from the start.
We hope you tune in to the livestream to help us do just that. Sign up now to make sure you don't miss the conversation:

Thank you for being a part of this community,
Alex Smith, Obama Fellow
P.S. This week, Janelle Monáe asked our community to share their stories with summit leaders, but we haven't heard from you yet. There's still time to add your voice!
Tell us your story in 10 words or less: how do you work towards a better future?
How do I work towards a better future? I bring together older and younger people to reduce loneliness. Tell us how you work towards a better future, and we may share your words at the Summit.
