Send us a textWhen Navy veteran Evan Graver's motorcycle collided with a semi-truck in 2001, his life changed forever. The accident left him a T10 paraplegic, abruptly ending his military career just months before 9/11 and forcing him to rebuild his identity from the ground up. Yet two decades later, Evan has transformed this devastating injury into a launchpad for an extraordinary life of purpose and service.In this raw, honest conversation, Evan takes us through his journey from enlistment in 1997 to his current role as a prolific thriller author with 24 published books. He recounts the darkest moments of his recovery with surprising humor – from his memorable five-day odyssey to reach the Cleveland VA ("hospital purgatory") to the pivotal moment when he found himself on his bedroom floor, unable to get back into bed. These seemingly small victories became the building blocks of his remarkable resilience.What makes Evan's story so powerful isn't just his personal triumph, but how he's channeled his experiences into helping fellow veterans. As a board member for two impactful nonprofits – Dive for Vets and Fishing with America's Finest – he helps disabled veterans discover healing through underwater adventures and fishing expeditions in the Florida Everglades. These organizations embody what Evan calls the essential elements of recovery: "purpose, belonging, and connection."The conversation also explores Evan's writing process, his supportive marriage to Becky (whom he's known since before birth), and the unexpected ways his injury prepared him to embrace life's challenges. Now exactly half his life has been spent in a wheelchair – 24 years walking, 24 years rolling – giving him a unique perspective on adaptation and finding joy regardless of circumstances.Whether you're a veteran seeking inspiration, someone facing your own life-changing challenge, or simply looking for an uplifting story of human resilience, Evan's journey demonstrates how tragedy can become transformation when viewed through the lens of possibility rather than limitation.

In Episode 146 of THE POWER OF RE:INVENTION, I connect with global changemaker, nonprofit leader, and author Neil Ghosh to explore a kind of meaningful Reinvention that's rooted in empathy, reflection and intentional impact.Neil opens up about his personal journey—from childhood dreams of becoming a doctor to building a purpose-driven career across government, business and global philanthropy. His encounters with the Dalai Lama, President Clinton and others have influenced him along the way.  We explore the pivots, pauses, and personal revelations that shaped his path, and how choosing to do good—on any scale—requires both courage and consistency.This conversation also explores the ideas behind Neil's upcoming book, Do More Good, which gathers life lessons and stories from extraordinary individuals he's encountered throughout his journey. His message is clear: making a difference doesn't have to be overwhelming. It can start small, and it can start now.Together, we unpack what it means to lead with empathy, how to stay grounded in a noisy world, and why Reinvention often begins not with a plan, but with one intentional act.Key Takeaways:Reinvention starts with reflection. The most powerful changes often come from quiet personal insight.Small, intentional acts can ripple outward. Doing good doesn't require a platform—just presence.Mentorship is a form of legacy. Giving your time and attention can change someone's direction—and yours.Empathy is a practice, not a trait. Especially in divided times, it becomes an anchor for impact.Purpose and sustainability can coexist. Nonprofit work doesn't mean sacrificing structure or strategy.Connect with Neil Official Site: www.neilghosh.orgNeil's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/neilghosh1/Get your copy of his book Do More Good on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Do-More-Good-Inspiring-Extraordinary/dp/B0DJZFG75ZAmazing Huffington Post Article by Neil from Over 9 Years Ago!

Communities across Montana are learning about policy that passed during the 2025 Legislative Session and how it affects them.

In the latest edition of 'The Valley Today,' host Janet Michael sat down with Andy Gail, CEO of United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley, and Holly Roberts, founder of Love To Nic, to discuss their impactful and collaborative efforts to support the homeless and needy communities in Northern Shenandoah Valley and beyond. Holly shared that Love To Nic was founded in memory of her late son, Nic, who struggled with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder before dying in a car accident a decade ago. The nonprofit primarily focuses on providing shoes but has since expanded to include winter jackets, boots, and other essential items like non-slip shoes and steel-toed boots to help the homeless secure jobs. Holly's heartfelt story included her travels to NFL stadiums. During these trips, the organization hands out numerous pairs of shoes, socks, hats, and gloves to the homeless. Janet remarked on how powerful and touching Holly's mission is, particularly the ripple effect that one act of kindness can provoke. Holly recounted a poignant story about a recipient who reached out to his mother after receiving shoes, which led to a cascade of donations from various states. The discussion then shifted to the collaborative aspect of their work. Andy explained how United Way emphasizes collaboration among nonprofits through their impact grants, requiring partnerships among applicants to address community needs more holistically. He noted that they had received over $800,000 in requests from 50 nonprofits. In a surprise announcement, Andy revealed that United Way had received an additional grant to support basic needs in rural counties. Holly was overjoyed to learn that Love To Nic would be receiving $5,000 from this fund to continue their important work in providing shoes and meals to the needy. Holly also discussed the logistics of her operations, highlighting partnerships with companies like Bombas for socks and various brands for affordable footwear. Despite the challenges, Holly's determination and her support network have allowed Love To Nic to make a significant impact. Andy talked about how United Way leverages community connections and data to secure funding and support for various initiatives. He emphasized that their success is a community effort, showcasing how collaborative efforts can drive meaningful change. The discussion ended on a high note with Holly thanking United Way and the community for their support, while Andy promised continued backing for her vital work. Janet encouraged listeners to engage and support such initiatives.  Learn more about Love to Nic: https://lovetonic.org/  Learn more about United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley: https://www.unitedwaynsv.org/

The show opens with me wondering if there is more to the propaganda than just getting us to think lies are true. What if it's about putting out so many lies, it become almost impossible to even know what truth is? And, once you accomplish that, how do you know the difference between right and wrong? We get updated trade deficit numbers today and they are even better than last week. Plus, the GDP has grown by over 4%. Is there really a fight between President Trump and Elon Musk? Are we going to allow “perfect” become the enemy of “good”? Is this a show to keep the news cycle focused on this spat instead of other stories? In a unanimous decision, the SCOTUS just ruled that any form of discrimination based on any demographic is against the law. But, on a different level of the judiciary, a district judge has just ruled to stop the illegal family of the fire-bomber from being deported. In a hearing on the Hill, the President and CEO of the National Council for Nonprofits, Diane Yentel, refused to answer questions by Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX), even when he caught her in a catch-22. In her mind, she is owed taxpayer money, regardless of what they are doing. The BBC is falling into the same trap as Jake Tapper and the rest of the media. Telling us you reported someone else's lies doesn't absolve you of reporting the lie. I have a tip for Rep. James Comer (R-KY). Instead of constantly over-promising and under-delivering, why not try the opposite? Try under-promising and over-delivering and maybe you'd have more success. ICE have been making great arrests, which is why so many Democrats are trying to stop them and doxx them. Some are being arrested, but more need to be. CNN's Anderson Cooper and actor George Clooney really don't get the difference between Trump the man and the America First movement. Finally, Stephen A. Smith goes off on the KJP book announcement from yesterday. Please take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

In this episode of What the Fundraising Podcast… Joining Mallory today are Bill Cummings and Todd Hiestand, the co-founder and director of branding and the co-founder and director of web strategy at Liminal, a branding and messaging agency with 50 years of combined nonprofit experience. They specialize in branding, strategy, and engagement.  In the nonprofit landscape, a clear and consistent core message is not a luxury but a necessity. Most of the founders carry the vision in their heads, which leads to staff and board members guessing and external audiences receiving mixed signals unless you codify the message. Having strong core messaging helps nonprofits to communicate their purpose effectively, stand out from others, and build trust. It gives everyone, including the frontline staff members and donors, an easy understanding of what the organization does and why it matters. Messaging will become the foundation of strategy, storytelling, and long-term growth when done well. Listen as Bill, Todd and Mallory go searching for the importance of core messaging and branding in nonprofits In this episode, you will be able to, - Learn the importance of having an ideal external presence. - Discover the relationship between core messaging and strategic planning. - Learn why you need to extract and codify the founder's vision. - Discover the role of clarity and consistency in core messaging.  Get all the resources from today's episode here.  Support for this show is brought to you by Donor Perfect.

Brent Minchew is Co-Founder, Executive Director, and Chief Scientist at Arête Glacier Initiative, a new nonprofit launched to close the gap between frontier glaciology research and actionable sea-level forecasts—and to probe whether “brake-tapping” inside Antarctic glaciers can slow their slide into the sea. Brent explains why current models still span 1–6 feet of rise by 2100—even if Paris targets are met—and how melting glaciers, especially Antarctica's so-called “Doomsday Glacier,” drive that uncertainty. He details why glaciology remains drastically underfunded, how sea-level changes already threaten coastal economies via insurance markets, and where Arête's first $5 million in philanthropic capital is going. He also walks through early-stage solutions—from thermo-siphons that passively refreeze ice to pumping sub-glacial water—that could “hit the brakes” on glacier flow and buy humanity time for deep decarbonization.In this episode, we cover: [03:45] Launching Arête to bridge glacier science and solutions[05:38] Inside the “doomsday glacier” and its global risk[07:18] Why Thwaites may collapse even if we hit climate goals[09:51] Sea level rise: Millions displaced per inch[12:41] The silent crisis of glacial melt[13:28] Economic ripple effects of rising seas[15:53] What Larsen B's collapse taught us[20:04] Arête's model: Philanthropy + global research[22:51] Advancing glacier tech through TRL stages[25:45] How Antarctica is governed[35:28] Refreezing glaciers with thermo-siphons[45:00] Drilling costs vs. seawalls: Where's the value?Episode recorded on May 14, 2025 (Published on June 2, 2025) Enjoyed this episode?
