I wish there were more nonprofit podcasts that wanted to help nonprofits succeed rather than make a buck off of them. Please, please, please keep up the good work. Thi... more

    As a newer founder of a growing nonprofit, I am so thankful for Tosha and her wisdom. Each episode is like attending a nonprofit workshop and I end it with my next to do item in mind.

    The guests offer helpful resources and insight into the many facets it takes to run a nonprofit and I am always encouraged to know that there ARE experts who can help with the issues we all face.

  • Great Information

    Full transparency, I work at the Charity CFO as an accountant; however, Tosha’s knowledge of the non-profit industry is top notch. I love listening to the podcast and hearing some ideas from her and her guests on the podcast! If you want to learn about the non profit world, or need some help with your non profit I would suggest this podcast!
