I am in the early stages of developing my own non-profit and am using this podcast like a tutorial. It’s been great. I’m listening sequentially-I’m on Episode 13.
Thank you so much for lighting my fire to get back on starting my non-profit from the ground up. So much more helpful than expected when I started listening.
I came across The Nonprofit Optimist as I researched podcasts aimed at small non profits whilst I’m in the beginning stage of founding my own. This is the best podcast I found on this subject matter. Well presented, insight content, and inspiring. It doesn’t matter that I’m based in England, it relates. Thank you!
