YEAR OF THE PIVOT & RESILIENCE 

We entered 2020 with a solid strategic plan. All of our planning quickly unraveled in March, and as a team and an organization, we are proud of how quickly we were able to pivot. We chose to lead with community and service. We raised funds and delivered PPE supplies to frontline healthcare workers, launched The Global Living Room, The Impact Labs, a Mobilize the Vote Initiative, and the Global Classroom to support our core work in equity – education – environment – and youth empowerment. Below is a snapshot of what we accomplished, under the most trying of circumstances.

> GETTING PPE TO FRONTLINE HEALTHCARE WORKERS

In early March, HATCH united multiple networks to raise money to get PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) to healthcare workers on the frontlines of the hardest hit, underserved hospitals (New York City, Washington D.C., and Los Angeles). By leveraging supply chains within the HATCH network, tens of thousands of masks and other PPE were shipped, received, and distributed directly to places in dire need on the frontlines, bypassing the circuit jams of supply chain distribution. Deliveries direct to the ER were made by a curated network of volunteers and off duty medical professionals.

> IMPACT LABS

The IMPACT LABS were created to bring together a global community to co-create solutions for major systemic problems in humanity at a time when solutions are most needed. HATCH has developed a prototype framework to leverage innovation and creative problem-solving methodologies while building momentum around current critical focus areas. For the first cohort, HATCHconvened 130 Impacters (41 NextGen) from 12 countries, 34 states across the country, forming 18 teams over 7 weeks, on 4 topics (Equity, Education, Environment, and Mobilize the Vote). Incredible Projects.
