Welcome to the Just Be Cause Podcast, a beacon of inspiration in the nonprofit space dedicated to exploring the intricate tapestry of causes that shape our world - from the animal kingdom to our environment, and ultimately, to us.
I'm Katherine Lacefield, your host, with two decades of experience navigating the nonprofit sector, with a special fondness for animal and environmental causes. Together, we'll delve into the heartening stories of nonprofits fearlessly bridging causes, share practical, hands-on advice on fundraising, and underline the critical role collaboration plays in any successful fundraiser.
The Just Be Cause Podcast is more than just a podcast; it's a movement challenging the scarcity mindset that's become all too common. It's about empowering nonprofits to reclaim their power, discover their true purpose, and use mindfulness to turn dream solutions into reality.
Join us on this transformative journey towards a more conscious philanthropy. Just Be Cause doing good, is the right thing to do.
Don't forget to leave us a review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and share with fellow nonprofiteers who would benefit from the show. Do you have your own story to share?
