"This year, Mashable has been working with the UN Foundation and 92nd Street Y to produce a series of events that we hope will break the mold of the traditionally closed concept of UN Week. We have an amazing lineup of speakers coming to the stage and are excited to announce that Geena Davis, Academy Award-winning actor and founder of See Jane, is joining us. She will be interviewed by Soledad O\u2019Brien, anchor and special correspondent at CNN.\nThe Mashable and 92Y Social Good Summit brings together people who are directly working on solving the world's most intractable problems through the frameworks of the UN's Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Through Mashable and our audience, we are aiming to bring the new media and social media worlds into the events, whether in person or via webcast, to help spread mass awareness and support for solutions to the MDGs. \nMashable needs your help in supporting us, the UN Foundation, its initiatives and the world. \nWays To Get Involved\n\nAre you in NYC during UN Week?
