We Are For Good Podcast - The Podcast for Nonprofits

Meet Lindsay. She knows what we're all thinking: sometimes mustering up the courage to make “the ask” can be intimidating. She gets it, because she's been there in past roles, including serving as a VP at a leading global fundraising and management firm. She'll talk us through the 5 Steps to Mastering the Ask, high value relationships & give us some tips to pivot if the solicitation takes an unexpected turn. If you've ever stressed about an ask at any level - this episode is your jam.Want our best roundup of tips, freebies, resources and show notes from each episode? Join the Good Community!

Meet Jeff. He's on a mission to disrupt U.S. sex trafficking networks and protect America’s children. Why? Because human trafficking is fastest growing crime in the world right now. "The enslavement of people is the fastest growing crime is not normal. And it’s not ok." Hard to discuss, but THIS right here requires community to eradicate it. Let's do our part, friends.
