Brennan Wong

Brennan Wong is passionate about scaling solutions for the world's greatest challenges, a purpose he’s had since his early youth. Nearly 10 years ago, he founded Pledges for Change, a non-profit with a mission to mobilize young people to volunteer. Through initiatives ranging from volunteer fairs to multi-day hackathons, the organization has reached 10,000+ young people with support from over 100 community partners. In 2018, Pledges for Change launched its Pilots Program to rapidly design, test, and scale innovative youth volunteer programming that the broader non-profit community could leverage.

Episode 87 is the 14th monthly feature of “Our Voices,” intended to accelerate social change that levels the playing field and helps everyone live to their full potential. In hearing the life journeys of people you might not otherwise encounter, listeners gain empathetic understanding for what may be a very different experience of what it means to grow up, go to school, struggle, work and live in our world. The aim is for people to see a bit of themselves in these journeys, and embrace—we’re more similar than not. This episode salutes the inspiration and power of youths in hearing a voice of GenZ, Brennan Wong. Now early in career at McKinsey & Company, Brennan has done more to effect positive social change at age 23 than most will do in their lifetimes and shares how purpose has served as a guiding force in his thinking and decisions. With the epiphany of an early volunteer experience, Brennan only recalls thinking about being part of “something bigger” and keenly aware of having a finite time in life. At 16 he started a nonprofit, Pledges for Change, paving for the way for numerous leadership opportunities—named one of Canada’s 20 under 20, a Global Teen Changemaker, a Global Citizen Youth Advocate and one Canada’s delegates to the G20 Young Entrepreneurs’ Alliance Summit in 2017. Brennan shares thoughts on his Chinese-Canadian-Australian identities, areas of study at university, how purpose guides him, and generational differences at work. Tune in for the wisdom of youth—to learn how he’s navigating his life journey, inspiring us to know no boundaries and to commit to taking action so that all can be safe, seen and heard, and our true and best selves. Molly’s thought for the week, courtesy of Willie Stargell, 1988 Baseball Hall of Fame Inductee: “That's where the future lies, in the youth of today.” Tune in to the show to learn how Brennan is navigating his life journey, inspiring us to know no boundaries and to commit to taking action so that all can be safe, seen and heard, and our true and best selves.
