Dan Pallotta Biography
Dan Pallotta is an entrepreneur, author, and humanitarian activist with a prominent track record in organizing charitable events. His initiatives include the Breast Cancer 3-Day walks, AIDS Rides bicycle journeys, and Out of the Darkness suicide prevention night walks. The first California AIDS Ride, which Pallotta conceived and organized, was a 600-mile bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles, raising over a million dollars in its inaugural year. In the following nine years, the event expanded across multiple US cities, accumulating a total of $108 million in donations.
As an author, Pallotta has contributed to the field of philanthropy with his works "Uncharitable – How Restraints on Nonprofits Undermine Their Potential" and "Charity Case: How the Nonprofit Community Can Stand Up for Itself and Really Change the World." These publications reflect Pallotta's commitment to enhancing the efficacy of non-profit organizations, a mission also embodied in his roles as president of Advertising for Humanity and president and founder of the Charity Defense Council, a national leadership movement dedicated to transforming the way the donating public thinks about charity and change.
Beyond his roles as an event organizer and author, Pallotta has shared his insights and experiences through numerous speeches, including presentations at the TED conference in 2013 and 2016. His contributions to humanitarian efforts have been recognized through awards such as the Liberty Hill Foundation Creative Vision award, the Triangle Humanitarian of the Year award, the Albany State University International Citizen of the Year award, and the Seven Fund's Morality of Profit Essay Prize.
He has been written about in feature and cover stories in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, Stanford Social Innovation Review, and has appeared on The Today Show, CNN, CNBC, American Public Media’s Marketplace, the TED Radio Hour, the BBC's Business Matters, and on numerous NPR stations, among others.

Dan Pallotta Speaking Topics
Innovation is all the rage in the business literature these days - how to stimulate it, how to improve it. But why? Why create in the first place? In this powerful talk, Dan explains that great innovation comes from great purpose - from a desire to move humanity forward, no matter what the industry or sector.
In this presentation based on his years of work in marketing, advertising, and paradigm busting, speaker Dan Pallotta offers a counterintuitive primer on creativity and innovation. You cannot possibly think outside the box unless you understand the nature of the box that bounds your current thinking. You must have real insight into it. You must figure out the box you're in. If you try to get out before you understand the box's parameters, you'll just stay stuck inside of it.
In this presentation based on his book When Your Moment Comes, speaker Dan Pallotta delivers a life-changing talk about identifying your full self expression, taking responsibility for it, and making your dream projects come true. "I raised half a billion dollars for charity and you can do anything you commit yourself to as well," he says.
It's time for the humanitarian sector to stand up for itself. In this powerful talk based on his book Charity Case - which Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called "an Apollo program for American philanthropy and the nonprofit sector" - speaker Dan Pallotta outlines the need for the nonprofit world to build a national leadership movement to defend itself, promote itself, and change the way the culture thinks about charity and how change gets made.
The way we've been taught to think about charity and change is upside down. If we changed the way we think about charity, charity could change the world. In this presentation based on his book Uncharitable - the best-selling title in the history of Tufts University Press - speaker Dan Pallotta shares what The Stanford Social Innovation Review calls "the nonprofit sector's new manifesto."
