Joanne Pasternack is the CEO of Oliver+Rose, and formerly  Vice President of Community Relations for the Golden State Warriors and the Executive Director of the Warriors Community Foundation. These are just a FEW of her credits. Her involvement in sports philanthropy is far reaching and speaks to her passion of helping others find their passions. Building off of Play it Forward’s previous season's conversations with the great Alana Beard who spoke on the transition from athlete to professional, and Alisha Greenberg's insight into holding charities accountable to the communities they serve, Joanne sheds light on what it means to support athletes and help them realize they are more than just athletes.
