From rowing as part of the first all-Black women’s 8 at the world’s largest regatta, to helping steer over $8 million in grants that fuel plant-based change, Candace brings the same grit from the boat to her work in philanthropy.
We dive into her journey to veganism while training as an athlete, the lessons she’s carried from sports into leadership, and how Thrive Philanthropy is funding a just, global plant-based food system—supporting everything from women-led tofu production in Uganda to vegan restaurant weeks and school lunch programs.
We also explore what it means to make a difference beyond what’s on your plate, and how you can support systemic change in food systems worldwide.
