When starting a business, no matter the industry, it's important to recognize how you can meet a need, fill in a gap, and/or fulfill a demand. My guest this week is able to meet the needs of her community, fill in a gap for Non-Profit organizations, and fulfill a demand to help women and girls find financial freedom in the Greater Boston area. This week, I am talking with Christina Gordon, CEO at Women's Foundation of Boston. Women's Foundation of Boston “is a registered 501(c)(3) that economically empowers Greater Boston women and girls through funding high impact leadership and economic programs in partnership with nonprofits serving solely women and girls”.

Since early in 2015 we've had the pleasure of hearing the insights and interviews of the Nonprofit Hour's co-host Julie Falk but we are sad to say that, due to the demands of her numerous other commitments in our community, she has informed us that she will no longer be able to continue with our show. We have greatly enjoyed having Julie as a part of the team and have benefited from viewpoints and perspectives she has shared with us and it is with that thought that we dedicate today's show to her. First up we will be hearing the final interview that she recorded for us with SAGE Metro Portland which is a program run through Friendly House that gives support to elders of Portland's LGBT community in transitioning through different stages and experiences of aging. In the second half of the show we will listen to a conversation with Emily Evans of the Women's Foundation of Oregon -- an organization that Julie Falk also served a pivotal role within during the same time that she has been with us on our program. We wish JUlie all the best and are glad to know that a person of her caliber will be involved in vital police accountability issues in the future through her role on the Portland Citizen Review Committee.
