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?
Contact us for us to consider you as a guest on our show!
Thank you for being a part of this inspiring community. Until next time, continue to inspire and be inspired.

Hey, wonderful listeners!
This week on the Just Be Cause Podcast, we’re taking you on an inspiring journey with John David Graham, the multifaceted founder of Good Samaritan Home—a transformative housing and mentoring program for individuals reentering society after prison. From wild career detours to compassion-driven innovation, John’s story is a testament to second chances and the power of community-driven solutions.
Tune in as we unpack the stigma surrounding formerly incarcerated individuals, explore the interconnected challenges of mental health, addiction, and homelessness, and dive deep into what it truly means to offer hope and belonging to the most vulnerable. What happens when society greets returning citizens with judgment instead of opportunity? Can genuine partnerships and storytelling shift our perceptions and spark systemic change? How can nonprofits balance focus with flexibility to better serve evolving community needs?
Bring your curiosity (and a box of tissues—you might need it!), and join us for an uplifting, eye-opening conversation about courage, purpose, and the relentless pursuit of doing the right thing… just because.
