Matt probably shouldn’t be here to tell his tale. But the fact that he is is an extraordinary example when a person chooses to take control of their life. Matt bravely shares his story that navigates the world of addiction, crime, mental health, and homelessness. But it also shines a light on what can happen when just one person believes in you. How your life can transform and how you can achieve success in love, life, and your career no matter how challenging your life has been. He’s full of love, passion, and an overwhelming drive to live every day to its fullest. He’s inspiring, lovable, and definitely one of my favourite people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever stopped to question if your fundraising messaging is ethical? Despite our best intentions as professional fundraisers, it is crucial for us to recognize that certain traditional fundraising methods no longer hold up under scrutiny in 2023. In our efforts to showcase the serious need for donations with often sad, evocative imagery, we run the risk of contributing to a negative stereotype or, even worse, retraumatizing those we are trying to help. Or we paint a picture of perfect success stories, only to discount the very real challenges our organizations are trying to solve.  While facing financial targets, it can indeed be tempting to prioritize the preferences and desires of donors. However, it is crucial for us to pause and reflect on whether such prioritization is being done at the expense of our mission and the well-being of our community.In this rebroadcast from Season 1, P2PPF's Marcie Maxwell sits down with Covenant House International's Associate Vice President of Site Development, Meghan Coan, and Associate Vice President of Peer-to-Peer Fundraising.  Meghan and Colleen share a passion for ethical storytelling, which informs their work with their signature Sleep Out program. We sat down with them to discuss pivotal moments that triggered transformative change within their team and how they are reevaluating messaging and event experiences to ensure alignment with their mission of providing housing for youth facing homelessness.In today's episode, we'll explore:How Covenant House is continuously evaluating and evolving its fundraising events to ensure mission alignmentHow they are reframing their messaging and responding to feedback from supportersThe importance of respecting personal boundaries in storytellingMentioned LinksCovenant House InternationalSleep OutStay Connected on LinkedInConnect with MeghanConnect with ColleenConnect with MarcieConnect with the Peer-to-Peer Professional Forum (00:00) - Welcome to The P2P Soap Box (02:03) - Introducing Colleen Veldt and Meghan Coan (07:44) - Sleep Out at Covenant House (11:50) - Evaluating Ethics & Mission (23:55) - Ethical Storytelling (28:04) - The Public Response (32:10) - Learn More

Le tourisme, une industrie d'avenir pour l'Afrique. Les voyageurs sont de retour après la pandémie de Covid-19. Le ministère sud-africain annonçait avoir retrouvé, voire légèrement dépassé le niveau de 2019 avec un peu plus de 10 millions de touristes l'année dernière. Les start-up africaines s'emparent de ce florissant marché et le poussent dans son développement. L'après-Covid : une révélation pour les entrepreneurs africains du tourisme. La Kényane SleepOut, la désormais célèbre Ojimah, des dizaines de start-up ont émergé pour répondre à la forte demande qui a suivi les périodes de restrictions. L'Ougandais David Gonahassa a créé Tripesa, une plateforme pour les petites et moyennes entreprises du secteur : hotels, organisateur d'évènements et tour opérateurs.« C'est un secteur dominé par les gros opérateurs qui maîtrisent la technologie et le marché. De nombreuses petites entreprises touristiques africaines n'y ont pas accès, elles ne peuvent pas vendre aussi efficacement que les gros du secteur. Ce que nous faisons à Tripesa, c'est de leur fournir la technologie pour qu'elles soient en mesure de créer par exemple des sites internet de qualité, de recevoir des paiements en ligne, qu'elles soient capables de s'attaquer à d'autres marchés. »Le Mobile Money, un atout pour l'AfriqueL'atout du continent africain, c'est le Mobile Money. Le paiement par téléphone lancé il y a une quinzaine d'années au Kenya. Une solution financière sûre et efficace qu'utilise le Camerounais Nghombombong Minuifuong, fondateur de la start-up Bongalo une plateforme de réservations.« C'est quelque chose qui a pris l'Afrique en entier. Tu ne peux pas aller dans un pays en Afrique aujourd'hui et ne pas trouver de Mobile Money. Nos compétiteurs n'auront jamais cette solution, une méthode de paiement incorporé sur leur plateforme. On compte sur cela pour bien servir nos hôtes d'un côté et nos clients de l'autre côté qui sont les voyageurs. C'est une très bonne innovation pour l'Afrique entière. »Un océan de croissance ?La demande augmente. L'Afrique est, selon David Gonahassa, le bon continent pour faire du tourisme. « Encore assez peu d'entreprises proposent les mêmes services que nous sur le continent. On a toujours un bel océan bleu devant nous. »Un océan de croissance pour le tourisme africain ? Sans doute, mais toutes les conditions ne sont pas encore réunies, tempère Nghombombong Minuifuong. « Il faut développer des sites touristiques. Par exemple, ici au Cameroun, il y a plein de sites touristiques qui sont juste abandonnés et les gens ne savent même pas. Il y a des chutes, il y a des plages, il y a des forêts, il y a des animaux que tous les gens veulent visiter. Donc quand je vois ça, je pleure. »Après le Rwanda et le Cameroun, Bongalo poursuit son développement en Afrique de l'Est. Tripesa, elle, revendique 700 sociétés clientes sur sa plateforme. Encore loin des mastodontes mondiaux comme AirBnB et Booking.

Have you ever stopped to question if your fundraising messaging is ethical? Despite our best intentions as professional fundraisers, it is crucial for us to recognize that certain traditional fundraising methods no longer hold up under scrutiny in 2023. In our efforts to showcase the serious need for donations with often sad, evocative imagery, we run the risk of contributing to a negative stereotype or, even worse, retraumatizing those we are trying to help. Or we paint a picture of perfect success stories, only to discount the very real challenges our organizations are trying to solve.  While facing financial targets, it can indeed be tempting to prioritize the preferences and desires of donors. However, it is crucial for us to pause and reflect on whether such prioritization is being done at the expense of our mission and the well-being of our community.In this episode, P2PPF's Marcie Maxwell sits down with Covenant House International's Associate Vice President of Site Development, Meghan Coan, and Associate Vice President of Peer-to-Peer Fundraising.  Meghan and Colleen share a passion for ethical storytelling, which informs their work with their signature Sleep Out program. We sat down with them to discuss pivotal moments that triggered transformative change within their team and how they are reevaluating messaging and event experiences to ensure alignment with their mission of providing housing for youth facing homelessness.In today's episode, we'll explore: How Covenant House is continuously evaluating and evolving its fundraising events to ensure mission alignment How they are reframing their messaging and responding to feedback from supporters The importance of respecting personal boundaries in storytelling Mentioned LinksCovenant House InternationalSleep OutStay Connected on LinkedInConnect with MeghanConnect with ColleenConnect with MarcieConnect with the Peer-to-Peer Professional Forum (00:00) - Welcome to The P2P Soap Box (01:23) - Introducing Colleen Veldt and Meghan Coan (07:04) - Sleep Out at Covenant House (11:10) - Evaluating Ethics & Mission (23:15) - Ethical Storytelling (27:24) - The Public Response (31:30) - Learn More

For the first time, Real Men Feel is on location. This week's show checks in from Covenant House's Sleep Out in Boxboro, Massachusetts. Andy took part in a fundraising event for Covenant House that involved giving up his bed for one night to raise funds to get more young people off the streets. People choose to spend a night outside to help those who don't have a choice. We talk with Jill Vorndran, Covenant House's Chief Development Officer. Topics and Questions 2:59 - What is going on tonight? 3:25 - Is this a global event? 3:54 - What is the point of the Sleep Out? 4:34 - What is the age range of Covenant House clients? 5:30 - What are you saving people from? 8:12 - Is this an annual event? 9:38 - It is an issue of individual circumstances that brings someone to Covenant House. You can create a Sleep Out event at any time by visiting CovenantHouse.org. Andy shares his immense gratitude for all his blessing. You can contribute to the cause until the end of the year. Please visit https://www.sleepout.org/participant/andygrant "I attempted to treat Friday like a typical day, but it wasn't possible. I knew I'd get less sleep at the Sleep Out, but I didn't expect how little I got. My thinking and energy were a struggle. I fell asleep twice in my office chair while attempting to work. I couldn't hit the gym, conversations were a challenge, and editing this week's show took much longer than it would normally. I fell asleep around 9 pm Friday and slept straight till 7 am Saturday. This was all from only one night on the streets. Many homeless people have full-time jobs, are full-time students, or even both, and can't afford a safe place to live. They deal with the daily battle of never having enough sleep and struggling to think clearly. If you are not in that situation, please give some compassion to those who are."

At one point in my youth, I left a mental hospital against medical advice because I had tickets to see Motley Crue. I figured if I was alive, I was going to that show. There's a longer tale about how I got home and the reaction of family and friends, but the net result is that I was kicked out of my house. I was homeless. Thankfully, I had neighbors who gave me a couch for a few days while I figured shit out, so I never had to live on the streets, but I thought that might be what happened. Through college and beyond, friends and I sometimes slept in city parks or hotel stairwells while traveling because we were broke. But that had a sense of adventure and playfulness, nothing like actual homelessness. I share this because I want to talk about homelessness, specifically Youth Homelessness. And I don't just want to talk about it. I'm going to do something about it and let you know how easily you can as well. In the United States, 4.2 million young people will face homelessness this year alone. Kids can end up on the streets because their home isn't safe or they are battling addiction, depression, or any mental health challenge. Living on the streets doesn't help any of it. Homelessness can lead to worse addictions, sex trafficking, and suicide. Covenant House, is a charitable organization that I've donated to for years. They empower young people to overcome homelessness by providing them safe housing, food and clothing, and relentless support. No one is ever turned away without support of some kind. And their services and programs are available at no cost. https://www.covenanthouse.org Perhaps you are wondering. Why is he talking about Covenant House so much? Because, for the first time, I'm an active participant in their annual fundraiser, the Sleep Out. The Sleep Out happens on November 17 around the world. People give up their beds for one night to raise money to get more kids off the streets for good. Please consider donating to my Sleep Out at https://www.sleepout.org/participant/andygrant By searching for my name, you can also find me on the sleepout.org home page. I'm talking about this because a planned guest had to cancel at the last minute. Today is October 7, and moments ago, I discovered that October 10 is World Homeless Day, so this is very synchronistic. Sleep Out is our chance to shine a light on the youth homelessness crisis and raise critical funds that help Covenant House provide young people with around-the-clock support. The awareness and funds raised translate to things like new sheets, computers, meals, and best-in-class care for youth overcoming homelessness. visit https://www.sleepout.org Donate to me at https://www.sleepout.org/participant/andygrant By searching for my name, you can also find me on the sleepout.org home page.

In this episode of Art of the Kickstart, we spoke with Mark Coombs, Co-Founder of Sleepout and creator of Sleepout Home. Sleepout Curtain and Sleepout Home are blackout curtains that block all the light from windows. When they initially approached curtain companies with the idea, they were told it was impossible, and no one would support it. After their first successful Kickstarter campaign, Mark and Hannah, the other co-founder, took customer feedback and their own experience of purchasing a home and launched a second campaign. It funded in under 10 minutes. Listen to learn how Mark and the rest of the Sleepout team used their community and campaign supporters to design and launch their newest product. Short on time? Here's what we talked about. Mark and his team took the core idea from their first campaign and transformed it into a new product with its own Kickstarter campaign.  Sleepout focused on converting community feedback into a product with the help of manufacturers and engineers. The team believed strongly in building a network of supporters that would help drive their campaign and business forward. Support from Sleepout's community was crucial in landing TV appearances and publicity. Mark discusses some exciting appearances and what they meant to the team. Sleep is extremely important, which the Sleepout team understood. Mark struggled with insomnia, and his own experiences led to creating a blackout curtain that evolved into Sleepout Home.
