Feminvest Summer Talk: Episode 5 Meet Petra Jacob, a Feminvest Summer Host 👉 In this summer talk, she tells the story of her journey to build a nonprofit organization that works proactively to help children choose an alternative path in life with the help of sports. Listen to how she with four kids, a full-time job as a project manager at Scania and no capital, manages to build up an organization that creates social impact. How she went from including 30 kids in one school and community within free sports practices every week to include over 270 kids and 50 youth leaders in four schools all located in socially vulnerable areas within three years. And how she step by step built the organization into what it is today! She speaks about the importance of social engagement and the societal challenges like criminality, mental illness and segregation Sweden is facing. The reason why Sweden is facing the challenges they do and why it is more important than ever that business and the public sectors step up and do more when it comes to collaborations with the non-profit sector and proactive work. 💪 When Petra started Lebi IF, she wanted to start a movement that makes society more inclusive, where every child has the opportunity to be a part of something.
