I am so excited to have Jenn Klein on the podcast today to talk about philanthropy. She’s the founder of You Are A Philanthropist, certified fundraising executive, major gift officer, health coach, mother of two, and soon-to-be author of a book coming out this spring called Giving is Selfish.
We're going to talk about philanthropy, work-life balance, health and wellness, and the reasons why people give back.
In this episode:
- [04:45] How nonprofit leaders can embrace the idea of being a philanthropist and create a culture of philanthropy in their organizations
- [09:35] How you can ensure every team member feels included in the mission and believe what they do matters
- [12:00] Self-care as part of giving back: the concept of giving to yourself first so you can then give to others
- [18:06] Where to start if you want to give back
- [24:40] How nonprofits can make volunteering and giving back more accessible
- [27:35] How stewardship is a key component of fundraising and philanthropy
