In this Masterclass, Megha Desai reframes philanthropy as a strategic tool for influence, access, and growth, not just giving. Drawing on her experience as President of the Desai Foundation, a public non-profit that elevates the health, livelihood, and menstrual equity of women and children, she will explore how women can intentionally use philanthropic engagement to expand their networks, sharpen new skills, and shape their next chapter. The session invites members to rethink legacy, voice, and impact, and to design a philanthropic strategy that advances both personal purpose and professional ambition.

Megha is President of the Desai Foundation, a public non-profit that elevates the health, livelihood and menstrual equity of women and children through community programs in rural India. Prior to her work in impact and community development, Desai spent 15+ years in traditional advertising at some of the most prestigious firms in the world. Her work has been awarded five Cannes Lions, along with several other distinguished awards, and was a pioneer in the branded entertainment space. She also founded Marketing. Strategy. Dharma, a strategic branding firm working with brands that wanted to integrate social responsibility into their businesses. These brands included HP, Coca-Cola, NPR, ONE.ORG, 1 Hotels, award-winning musicians, and more.
