This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Michelle Perreault. The two talk about how Michelle Perreault transformed her freelance business into a mission-driven company, the unique challenges of helping resource-limited organizations communicate their impact, and the innovative ways MOD-Lab continues to provide value for clients beyond just exceptional design. In this episode, we discuss: How Michelle started as a freelance designer, then founded MOD-Lab to provide high-quality branding and design support to nonprofits, focusing on organizations that make a real difference in their communities.​ What inspired Michelle to focus on nonprofits? She said working with mission-driven organizations fuels her purpose and enthusiasm. The joy she finds in helping resource-limited teams strengthen their brand and share their story to create impact is at the core of MOD-Lab. When Michelle decided to build a team, she transitioned from freelancing to a company as the demand for her services increased. She describes the slow, organic path that shaped MOD-Lab's culture. Why MOD-Lab's success hinges on prioritizing relationships and referrals, emphasizing trust, collaboration, and a strong network over nearly two decades. How consistent branding helps nonprofits fundraise and make an impact; Michelle highlights key differences between nonprofit and for-profit models. Michelle Perreault is the Founder, Creative Director, and Lead Designer at MOD-Lab (Minds On Design Lab). MOD-Lab is the thoughtful design partner for small teams doing big things in the social sector. We create memorable branding, design materials, and websites. With over 25 years of experience working with small teams, she understands the realities they face: limited capacity, tight budgets, and ambitious goals. Often, they don't have design expertise or leadership as part of their teams. Design is a vehicle to inspire confidence, clarity, and trust around a brand, so not having dedicated design resources is a detriment. She works to change this by offering organizations a dedicated part-time design team. At MOD-Lab, she has refined practical, scalable design processes that meet organizations where they are and help them grow with confidence. Her goal is to be a true brand advocate for client partners, ensuring every piece of communication aligns with their mission, strengthens their message, and looks beautiful.

As the Valley Today podcast kicks off Camping for Hunger Week, host Janet Michael sets the stage for a conversation that goes beyond food drives and donation bins. This annual initiative, anchored by the River 95.3's bus parked at Royal Plaza Shopping Center, mobilizes the community to support those facing food insecurity. However, as Janet welcomes Andy Gail, CEO of United Way of Northern Shenandoah Valley, it becomes clear that the need extends far beyond canned goods and non-perishable donations. Dialing for Help: The Power of 2-1-1 Andy wastes no time introducing listeners to the 2-1-1 resource line—a statewide service that connects Virginians to a wide array of essential resources. Unlike 9-1-1, which is reserved for emergencies, 2-1-1 serves as a lifeline for those seeking assistance with housing, utilities, food, healthcare, and more. Andy explains how the system, supported by United Way and other partners, streamlines access to both local and state-level programs. As a result, individuals in crisis no longer need to navigate a confusing web of agencies; instead, a single call can open doors to the help they need. Data-Driven Decisions: Understanding Community Needs Transitioning from services to statistics, Andy shares how United Way leverages real-time data from the 2-1-1 dashboard. This tool provides a clear picture of the region's most pressing needs, from rent assistance and shelter to food pantries and utility support. For instance, in the past year, over half of the calls to 2-1-1 in the Shenandoah Valley related to housing and shelter, with rent assistance topping the list. By analyzing this data, United Way and its partners can respond more effectively, ensuring that resources are directed where they are needed most. Nonprofits Under Pressure: Adapting to a Changing Landscape The conversation shifts to the challenges facing local nonprofits. Janet and Andy discuss how some organizations have been forced to close or narrow their focus due to rising demand and limited funding. Andy emphasizes the importance of nonprofits keeping their information up to date in the 2-1-1 system, so callers receive accurate referrals. Moreover, he highlights the need for organizations to "tighten their focus" and maximize their impact, especially as economic uncertainty and government funding cuts loom large. The Human Side of Need: Dignity, Empathy, and Community Support Throughout the discussion, both Janet and Andy stress the importance of treating those seeking help with dignity and respect. They dispel myths about people "milking the system," instead painting a picture of hardworking individuals—often dubbed the "working poor"—who simply fall short at the end of the month. Stories of local generosity abound, from free community fridges to neighbors sharing extra groceries. These acts of kindness, Andy notes, are what make the Shenandoah Valley a caring and resilient community. How Listeners Can Help: Giving Back, One Dollar at a Time As the episode draws to a close, Janet and Andy encourage listeners to get involved. Whether by donating to the United Way's emergency fund, contributing food or water to local fridges, or simply spreading the word about 2-1-1, every action counts. Andy reminds the audience that even small gifts, when multiplied across the community, can make a significant difference. Conclusion: Building a Stronger Valley Together In summary, this conversation shines a light on the interconnected challenges of hunger, housing, and community support in the Shenandoah Valley. Through the efforts of United Way, the 2-1-1 resource line, and countless local nonprofits, hope remains alive for those in need. As Camping for Hunger Week continues, Janet and Andy's conversation serves as both a call to action and a testament to the power of community.

Ignoring the problems in our culture won't make them go away. Instead, we need to ask God to move in our homes and communities and be ready to respond to His Holy Spirit. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the increasing lawlessness in our nation—and the growing movement to turn our hearts back to God that we're seeing arise from the young people. He teaches about King Hezekiah, who had an assignment to change the culture in his lifetime, and he shares some lessons we can learn from this Old Testament leader about how to invite God to shape hearts. People are waking up to the reality of a biblical worldview, and we can be a part of what God is doing!
