Three of the storytellers are from The Compact’s Think-ubator program, which provides fiscal sponsorship and strategic support for potential organizations and individuals with ideas and dream projects:

- Kristen Becker, nationally recognized comic and founder of Summer of Sass

Other featured speakers:

- Jeff Walker, single dad with two daughters, Abby and Alice, who have been the dynamic Walker Family Swim Team at the Swim for Life for ten years

The Compact's mission is nurturing community and it is a cultural and economic generator, helping to launch nine nonprofits, more than 50 art and community projects, 2,500+ dune shack residencies and raising $7M for AIDS, women’s health and the community at the annual Swim for Life & Paddler Flotilla (the 38th event is set for September 6, 2025).

Compact initiatives include: a new grant through the National Park Service, Underrepresented Communities, to document LGBTQ+ sites and structures in Provincetown’s Historic District; the Think-ubator project; the Swim for Life; Prayer Ribbons and dune shack residencies.

Thank you.

Peace,
