Triumphant Events founder, Daniel Priestley, attended The Hunger Project's 30th Anniversary gala event in New York. At this event Daniel presented a cheque for $25,000 that was raised through the commitment of Coutts Bank and XL Results Foundation Members. A further $25,000 has been pledged by December 31.
As an incredibly unexpected bonus, all donations and pledges at the event were doubled through corporate sponsors of the event. This means that Triumphant Events was able to effectively contribute $100,000 this year to The Hunger Project. This money will be used to build an "Epicenter" (used as a bank, school, medical center, food store and town hall) in Uganda.

In this episode of Ted Talks, Richard Branson advances the term "capitalist philanthropy". The concept of not just acquiring wealth for the sake of getting richer and bigger and better goodies, but in turn using that responsibility of power to help humanity and the small planet in which we inhabit.
Glen & Daniel suffered for over 7 days in Bali recently as they connected with Roger Hamilton and his XL leadership team. XL is now represented in 18 countries and more than 35 cities around the world and we are proud to be promoting Roger and the philosophy of World Wide Wealth in the UK.
