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.

This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. First Step House has been helping people rebuild their lives since 1958. Through treatment, housing, and wraparound support, they serve those facing behavioral health conditions like substance use disorder and mental illness. Development Director, Mary-T Calhoon, joins us with more. Mary Calhoon: First Step House helps people facing some of the toughest challenges – chronic addiction, mental illness, incarceration, and homelessness. We provide two main pathways for moving forward. The first is treatment and recovery housing, where clients progress step by step — from residential care, to sober housing, and eventually into independent housing. We also have a dedicated program for veterans. The second pathway is permanent supportive housing for people whose mental or behavioral health conditions require long-term support. Right now, we operate 285 housing units for people at risk of homelessness, with three more apartment buildings opening by 2028. We serve 1,700 people a year. What does that mean for our community? Safer streets, fewer jail stays and ER visits, and fewer people becoming homeless. And for our clients, it means the chance to reconnect with family, to find work, and build a life of purpose in recovery. You can learn more at first step house dot org. Derek Miller: First Step House shows how local organizations strengthen Utah. By supporting recovery, stability, and opportunity, they help create safer neighborhoods, stronger families, and a healthier economy — showing how businesses like theirs build a thriving community for all. I'm Derek Miller, with the Salt Lake Chamber, Speaking on Business. Originally aired: 10/1/25

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
