A Tale of Resistance... Based on a Real Story  Hannah longs for the days when she used to be free, but now, she is a Jewish prisoner at Theresienstadt, a model ghetto where the Nazis plan to make a propaganda film to convince the world that the Jewish people are living well in the camps. But Hannah will do anything to show the world the truth. Along with other young resistance members, they vow to disrupt the filming and derail the increasingly frequent deportations to death camps in the east.

What if unlocking a child's full potential began with something as simple as a clean, well-fitting set of clothes? In this inspiring episode, host Nicole Jansen sits down with Lynn Margherio, the visionary founder of Cradles to Crayons. Each year, Lynn's organization provides over a million packages of essentials—clothing, shoes, diapers, school supplies—to children living in poverty or crisis, completely free of charge. But this isn't just about meeting material needs; it's about addressing the often-ignored crisis of clothing insecurity, which impacts over 20 million children across the U.S. Join us as Lynn shares her compelling journey from the world of business consulting and public policy to launching a nonprofit that's become a national movement. She reveals how clothing insecurity affects a child's ability to learn, grow, and feel confident—and why she chose to step down as CEO after 23 years to ensure the organization thrives beyond her leadership. Whether you're passionate about social entrepreneurship, building sustainable impact, or simply want to make a difference, this episode is packed with insights and practical ways to get involved. In This Episode, You'll Discover: What inspired Lynn to pivot from consulting and the White House to social impact The true definition of clothing insecurity—and why it matters How Cradles to Crayons serves over a million kids each year with remarkable efficiency The vital role of volunteers and community partners in scaling the mission What it takes to transition leadership and build an enduring legacy How you can support children in need—locally or virtually The educational and emotional toll of lacking basic clothing Why awareness is just as critical as giving How Giving Factory Direct empowers anyone to make an impact from anywhere How to discern if your idea is meant for your neighborhood—or the nation Tune in and be inspired by how one woman's simple idea, fueled by compassion and community, has transformed millions of young lives—and learn how you can be part of the solution.

Favorite Quotes: “Don't assume that others have it covered. If you've got an idea, explore it and do something about it.”—Lynn Margherio “Proper clothing is a very visible sign that a child's basic needs are met. It's about dignity as well as opportunity.” – Lynn Margherio CEO Update since the Recording of this Episode Founder Lynn Margherio announced in late February that Christine Morin, a strategic leader who has spent her career advocating for youth and under-resourced communities, was appointed as the next CEO of Cradles to Crayons®. Lynn says she is incredibly proud to pass the baton to her and couldn't be more confident in Christine's ability to lead Cradles to Crayons into its next chapter.   Episode Show Notes: https://leadersoftransformation.com/podcast/leadership/533-distributing-hope-to-over-a-million-children-every-year-with-lynn-margherio    Check out our complete library of episodes and other leadership resources here: https://leadersoftransformation.com ________

Lynn Margherio is the Founder and CEO of Cradles to Crayons, which "provides children from birth through age 12, living in homeless or low-income situations, with the essential items they need to thrive – at home, at school, and at play. We supply these items free of charge by engaging and connecting communities." Cradles to Crayons uses a lot of volunteers - of all ages - to meet their mission goals. Lynn joins host Steve Boland to talk about the importance of volunteerism as a component of building both service delivery and community support for nonprofit missions. The Cradles to Crayons "Giving Factory" (a warehouse where volunteers can give to their mission) has thousands of volunteer visits every year and Lynn talks about leveraging that commitment to further engagement in the mission work over time. Lynn talks about growing from faxes and spreadsheets to using a customized Salesforce implementation (more on Salesforce for nonprofits in this podcast episode), the importance of relationship and connection with volunteers, and much more. Lynn also has a TEDxBeaconStreet talk about building an "army of empathy" including volunteers and building a culture of connection from a young age.

You've heard it said that the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. In a way, it is true. Mothers – and fathers – have a great impact on our nation as they teach and train their children. All great leaders were once children, and the impact of parents in a child's life is immeasurable. Our young people suffer when they are allowed to be grown up children instead of adults, and our culture suffers when parents do not take on the responsibilities of preparing children for adulthood and being active citizens to protect liberty so their children may flourish in freedom. Many parents are becoming involved in politics as they watch our nation decline, and it is having a huge impact on business and politics, affecting public policy at all levels of government. Linda's guest, Amber Infusino, was an average mom – not unlike millions of other parents – who didn't pay much attention to politics or policy. A night of violence and months of unrest in her local community awakened her to accept her responsibility as a parent and community member to get involved in solutions to promote healing and a positive path forward. Listen to Amber's story to learn how the violence affected their family business, how she got involved in Moms For Liberty, and how you can be engaged to make your community a better place and our nation a beacon of freedom for all. ©Copyright 2023, Prosperity 101, LLC ________________________________________ For information and resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity by Linda J.
