yet we conduct ourselves knowing we have a greater responsibility to the world. We consider how our work can kindle thought and action to impact the environment and larger community. This perspective shapes the sense of purpose we bring to every program, and emphasizes the ethics we live by: Empathy. Compassion. Kindness. Let’s start the connection.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share an experience that sparks deep discussion and connection.

SHW is a proud partner of TEDxSeattle, who featured a variety of speakers on the topic of "Tall Order." Local experts discussed cultural, economic, and physical development in our community, and their ideas to shape that change.
