Manage episode 454765426 series 3508844
Y'all, we have a trio on the podcast today. I'm so excited to welcome Dr. Theresa Ashby and Catherine Curry-Williams to the podcast. Cat is a dynamic speaker and bestselling author known for her raw, authentic, and caring approach while Dr. Ashby challenges the status quo through her high-energy, cutting-edge, and humorous presentation leaves audiences re-imagining the future of business. Both are experts on collective giving and are reimagining philanthropy with their grassroots organization, The She Angels Foundation, where they are pooling their resources to make a big impact through $5,000 grants to underfunded organizations. What struck me most was their emphasis on making philanthropy accessible and fun – turning it into a "party" where members can see their dollars at work. They are challenging the notion that you need to be a major donor to make a difference, showing how small, consistent contributions can add up to create real change. After listening to this episode, you’ll feel energized about the potential for this model to transform the nonprofit and “community” landscape.
Topics:
- The power of collective giving and using strategic giving to make a huge impact with small donations while fostering community
- How Theresa and Catherine are reimagining what it means to be in community via diversity, belonging, openness and freedom – especially for women
- Why Catherine believes people are inherently good, and how Dr. Ashby is helping people learn how to implement that good
- Living out your values not even in your daily life, but through your philanthropic efforts too in order to emulate how others can do the same
- Recognizing that the younger generations are now in the position where they can teach us about giving, monetarily and beyond
