“We are in the middle of a heart-breaking, lethal social experiment about the compounded toll that global disruptions take when they undermine our health, economic security, and social cohesion all at once. Simultaneously, we are learning that human connection, strong social fabrics, and an environment of trust and security strengthen communities across the board when they are threatened. Philanthropic strategies that invest in a multi-pronged approach to address more than one aspect of well-being via community-based organizations will amplify our impact.” 

- Jennifer Gross, co-founder of the Blue Chip Foundation , excerpted from remarks presented to The Science and Ethics for Happiness and Well-Being conference hosted virtually by the Vatican, March 2020
