Ahead of the Big Share next week, host Dana Pellebon speaks with Cheri Dubiel of Community Shares of Wisconsin and Alex Lindenmeyer of Urban Triage. Community Shares is a member-based fundraising organization that you might be familiar with from workplace giving campaigns or the CHIP program at Willy St. Coop. They focus on supporting social justice and environmental causes.  Urban Triage is a community organization that offers direct services like housing initiatives and urban agriculture. Their farm serves multi-generational Black and Brown folks, and the organic produce they grow is donated back to the community. Lindenmeyer describes Urban Triage's upcoming art exhibit, Seen and Unseen, that will open at the Wisconsin State Capitol on March 3. This immersive, outdoor installation is designed to deepen community understanding of homelessness and the real pathways to housing stability, representing crisis response, case management, and long-term housing solutions. They also discuss how federal funding cuts are affecting community organizations, especially those that are working to alleviate housing insecurity and follow housing-first principles. Youth are the largest group of folks at risk of becoming unhoused, and it's estimated that 1400 kids in MMSD will experience homelessness this year. Alex Lindenmeyer is a proud founding board member of Urban Triage and was just hired full-time this year as their Development Manager. Cheri Dubiel has served as Executive Director of Community Shares since January, 2017. She has worked at Community Shares of Wisconsin for a combined total of 17 years, being hired first as Development Director.  Featured image of artwork from the Seen and Unseen installation.

Today, Jon and Becky sit down with Analía Weber, Development Director at The Family Center / La Familia, to explore a bold paradigm shift for the nonprofit sector. One that begins with how we speak about ourselves.Analia's journey into fundraising didn't follow a traditional path. A lifelong dancer and arts leader, she pivoted careers at 39 and stepped into nonprofit development with heart, courage, and a willingness to begin again. Now, less than four years later, she's not only the Director of Development for a thriving, holistic family support organization — she's chairing a regional nonprofit sector partnership and advocating for a 10-year movement to reposition nonprofits as trusted experts and essential community leaders.In this episode, you'll hear:Why the language we use about “donors,” “nonprofits,” and “doing more with less” shapes power dynamicsHow nonprofits can shift from being seen as supplemental to being recognized as experts at the decision-making tableThe mindset of begin again — and why failure is part of the workHow La Familia funds the whole family through holistic, community-centered designA dance-inspired framework for leadership: show up, pay attention, tell the truth, and don't get attached to the resultsIf you're a nonprofit leader navigating uncertainty, funding shifts, or systemic barriers, this episode is your reminder: you don't have to have it all figured out. You get to begin again. And the sector's transformation starts with us.Episode Highlights: From dancer to development leader (2:46)​Finding La Familia and community (4:05)​Inside La Familia's holistic mission (7:49)​Funding the whole family (10:15)​Fundraising with dignity and new language (12:20)​A 10-year paradigm shift for the sector (16:01)​“Begin again” as a leadership mindset (19:25)​Analia's Story of Philanthropy (26:00)Analia's One Good Thing: Compositional improvisation for everyday choices (26:34)Episode Shownotes: www.weareforgood.com/episode/685//Join the We Are For Good Community—completely free.Join fellow changemakers, share takeaways from this working session, and keep collaborating in a space built for connection, inspiration, and real impact: www.weareforgoodcommunity.com Say hi

Some development leaders wait for direction.Others go the extra mile.What makes the difference?In this episode, Bryan and Greg explore a mindset shift that changes how development leaders approach their work — and why the most effective fundraisers don't think like employees at all.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be afraid of the very foods that are supposed to nourish you because no matter what it is you eat, you get violently ill? To be told “You look healthy”, “Drink more water”, “Sounds like stress” by doctor after doctor so many times that you start to question your own sanity? To lose your job due to your inability to tell your new employer the reason why you're sick all the time — an answer you yourself will not get for another three years? Jamie Zimmerman Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women, yet it remains widely misunderstood and severely under-researched. This week on Pushing Limits, we take a deep dive into the life of Jamie Zimmerman, who was only recently diagnosed but has been living with endometriosis symptoms for most of her life. Join us as Jamie shares her journey to diagnosis, the challenges of being believed, and what living with endometriosis really looks like. She is a disability advocate, a yoga teacher, Development Director at a nonprofit organization in Portland, Maine supporting, empowering, and amplifying the voices of immigrant women, but would likely most identify with the role of writer. Her essays, some of which are about her chronic illness journey, have been published in multiple journals. Jamie holds a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from Oregon State University, a Master of Science in Applied Gerontology, and a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. This program was produced and hosted by Bonnie Elliott. Interview and recording assistance were provided by Jacob Lesner-Buxton. Editing was done by Denny Daughters and Dominick Trevethan.

What are the keys to creating strong partnerships between nonprofits and mission-aligned service providers? Today, I talk with Texas Health Huguley CEO Penny Johnson and Maggie Beaird, Development Director for the American Heart Association, to talk about one of AHA's North Texas signature fundraising events, the Tarrant County Go Red For Women Luncheon. One of North Texas's most successful and impactful luncheons each year, the American Heart Association Go Red for Women Luncheon in Fort Worth draws hundreds of top community leaders and medical advocates to raise awareness for heart disease, which is the leading cause of death for women in the United States. One of the keys to the events success is creating strong partnerships with top medical facilities in the region such as Texas Huguley Health Hospital. Penny and Maggie provide valuable insights on a range of topics, including the importance of long-term planning in creating successful community partnerships, giving events with a national/global mission a local feel, utilizing fundraising events to develop deeper relationships with top donors and community leaders, plus so much more. This is one episode you will not want to miss.

In today's episode, I'm bringing you a really special conversation with someone I adore — my friend and Courage Lab grad, Sheena Grosshans If you've been around here for a while, you know I love highlighting fundraisers who are doing courageous, meaningful work, and Sheena is truly one of the best examples of what's possible when you combine heart, boldness, and a willingness to grow.Sheena raised $250,000 in just six months while working only 1–2 hours a week inside Courage Lab. Yep — you read that right. And what makes her story even more powerful is that she's doing life-changing work at To Write Love on Her Arms, supporting young people who are struggling with depression, addiction, suicidal ideation, and self-harm. Her commitment, her empathy, and her sheer belief in the mission shine through in everything she does.In this episode, you'll hear us talk about: • How Sheena built a major gifts program from scratch • The mindset shift that transformed her confidence asking for bigger gifts • Why being bold, direct, and unapologetic changed the way donors responded • The tiny follow-up habit that unlocked a $10,000 gift (and a $40,000 annual fundraiser!) • How one “small” $500 gift turned into a $20,000 annual donor • The courage it takes to restructure your role so you can actually raise more money • What it looks like to advocate for your own capacity and get things off your plate • Why consistency builds trust faster than any fancy stewardship plan • How relationship-based fundraising helped her donors feel deeply connected to the missionOne of my favorite moments in this conversation is when Sheena shares the internal shift from “maybe you could give if you want” to “we are the best at what we do, and I'm inviting you into something powerful.” That shift alone can change everything — and you'll hear exactly how it did for her.If you've ever wondered what it looks like to step fully into your leadership as a fundraiser, to believe in the value of your work, and to ask boldly from that place of conviction, Sheena's story is going to light you up.I'm so proud of the work she's done, and even more excited for you to learn from her today.

Julia C. Patrick and Tony Beall get practical about recruiting fundraising talent when Q4 urgency is peaking. They open with empathy for development teams sprinting toward holiday giving, then move straight into the realities leaders must manage: retention, clarity, and smarter channels for sourcing candidates. Tony reminds us of the data behind turnover—average tenure around 19 months—and turns that into a charge for boards and executives to assess culture and expectations, not just replace people. “I'm an advocate of putting salary ranges in job postings,” he says, framing transparency as both respectful and time-saving for everyone.The core lesson: start with a carefully crafted role. Compensation, deliverables, and core competencies belong upfront so you can source with precision. Julia pushes the conversation further: what if someone has been in the role for ten years? Tony offers a balanced lens—deep relationships can be a huge asset provided the organization's future vision and the person's strengths still connect.From there, they map pathways to strong candidates: specialized job boards (AFP global and chapter sites, Chronicle of Philanthropy, local consulting firms' boards), professional networks, and the university pipeline. Today's philanthropic studies programs and micro-credentials (including LinkedIn Learning) expand opportunities for both organizations and professionals; mid-career learners with real-world experience can be exceptional hires. Julia points to the Lodestar Center at ASU as an example of a robust regional hub producing talent across ages and backgrounds.They also cover the human side: discretion on LinkedIn (quietly indicating recruiter-friendly status), partnering with search firms, and managing communications in small communities where reputations travel fast. Tony's encouragement is simple and memorable: “You have to be in it to win it.” That means showing up, telling trusted peers you're exploring options, and being thoughtful about where and how you share.The episode closes with practical optimism. Recruiting well isn't about luck—it's about clarity, channels, and consistent relationship-building. Name the role. State the range. Know the competencies. Post where fundraisers actually look. Tap universities and certificates. And keep your personal brand healthy—because your next opportunity often starts with the conversations you have today! #TheNonprofitShow #FundraisersFriday #NonprofitCareersFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Host Jeremy C. Park talks with Anna Stoiber, Development Director with Operation Warm, who highlights the nonprofit organization and their mission of "providing warmth, confidence, and hope through basic need programs that connect under-resourced children to the community resources they need to thrive." During the interview, Anna shares how the organization began in 1998, and how their efforts have expanded from providing coats to now including athletic shoes and sports bras, distributing over 7 million items through partnerships with companies like FedEx and International Paper, community organizations, and other nonprofits. The organization uses an efficient logistics system to plan events where children can select new items that fit them, creating meaningful connections between volunteers and youth while improving school attendance and confidence. Supporters can contribute through individual donations starting at $25 or corporate partnerships, with more information available at operationwarm.org.Operation Warm's Expanding Community ImpactAnna Stoiber, Development Director of Operation Warm, explains that the organization was founded in 1998 by Dick Sanford who initially provided 58 coats to children near Philadelphia, and since then the organization has grown to provide 7 million coats and other necessities to children in need. She describes how Operation Warm has evolved beyond coats to include athletic shoes with two pairs of socks in 2020 and sports bras in 2023, all based on feedback from community partners about essential items needed by children in their programs.Operation Warm: Community Clothing SupportAnna explains that Operation Warm connects with local organizations supporting children in need, providing garments as an extra basic need beyond clothing, food, and shelter. In Tennessee, partnerships with companies like FedEx, International Paper, Subaru, and firefighter departments have distributed over 25,000 coats and shoes to children in the past two years. The program creates meaningful connections between volunteers and children at events where kids can choose new, colorful items that fit them, creating moments of joy and showing children that their community cares about them.Operation Warm's Outreach and SupportAnna explains Operation Warm's logistics for providing coats and shoes to children, using an algorithm to predict sizes and needs for schools, with direct shipping through FedEx to reach even rural communities. The planning process typically takes 6-8 weeks for full-service events, though direct shipments to community organizations can be arranged more quickly. Anna outlines various ways to support their efforts, from individual $25 donations (covering one coat or pair of shoes) to corporate partnerships, with options for fundraising through their website where supporters can set goals and receive toolkits with promotional materials.Operation Warm's Community Impact SuccessAnna shares that Operation Warm receives excellent feedback from corporate partners, with 100% of corporate volunteers expressing interest in participating again, and partners like FedEx and the First Lady of Tennessee's office returning because of the meaningful connections made. Jeremy emphasizes that beyond providing coats and shoes, the program builds community through relationships between volunteers and youth. Anna adds that feedback from schools is particularly positive, noting that the "newness factor" of items makes a significant difference for children who may have never owned something brand new, improving school attendance, focus in class, and confidence.Operation Warm Community Feedback InitiativeAnna emphasizes the importance of community feedback in keeping Operation Warm's products and programming fresh and impactful, encouraging donations of any size and input on their offerings. She explains that innovation is one of their core values as they strive to be efficient and effective. Jeremy concludes by asking where people can connect with Operation Warm, and Anna directs them to operationwarm.org and their social media channels where people can donate or partner with the organization.So, visit https://operationwarm.org to learn more about and get involved with Operation Warm.https://www.facebook.com/OperationWarm/https://www.linkedin.com/company/operationwarm/DONATE
