Philanthropy Plugged In is a podcast series focused on the intersection of technology, gender, and giving. In the Philanthropy Plugged In podcast series, we explore big ideas with our guests: Is technology broadening access to philanthropy? Are new applications and platforms accelerating social change? How do donors use technology to give? What does creating community in the digital age look like? (Many of us have new experiences related to this question as a result of COVID-19.) How do nonprofits leverage technology for fundraising?
