The Non Profit Podcast Network
The Non Profit Podcast network is a compilation of not for profit businesses, organizations and community entities that are invited to be interviewed on the podcast pro-bono, use the network to find like organizations doing great work in their communities and source a one-stop listening shop of exclusively non profit organizations. This outlet is meant to give each featured non profit an opportunity to tell their story in their words, giving listeners a better and more complete understanding of the mission, vision and values as well as clearly delineating who they serve and how they're funded. Our intent is for this network to become a useful tool in helping any non profit organization begin the journey to successfully telling their story though podcasting then using that podcast as a marketing tool to reinforce their current supporters, reach new potential donors and volunteers through an easily deployed podcast. Growing reach for awareness with the speed of digital, this is just one more opportunity to get their story told to more people faster. By doing so, we expect this process to further embed the organizations in their communities of service as a result of the simplicity of distribution, the nature of the content and the ease of access to learn more about them.

I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode. Please send me a text...
This episode has a special space in our catalog as Kids First was the very first non profit to have been recorded back during the pandemic. Since that first episode was all about the virtual event, it seemed only fair to bring it up do date to help get the story told of all they do for the community. Listen in as I speak with Debbie Gabelich, CEO, as we explore the comprehensive services offered by Kids First, a family resource center dedicated to supporting families through counseling, assistance with essentials, and specialized support for children affected by sex trafficking. Debbie shares the necessary collaborative efforts with other organizations, detailing the impressive outreach of a 35-person team serving thousands, and the innovation needed to maintain connections with the community in a post-pandemic landscape.Hear firsthand about the pressing issues facing the working poor in areas like Placer County, where skyrocketing living costs create heart-wrenching choices between rent, food, and childcare. We delve into the mental health crisis that these financial strains exacerbate, discussing the rise in abuse cases and the complexities involved in providing therapy to those without a stable living situation. Our conversation emphasizes the importance of empathy, illustrating how crucial it is to really listen to those we're striving to help and the assistance programs designed to alleviate some of this burden.We close with a powerful success story of a young girl who overcame the trauma of sex trafficking to build a life for herself and her child, thanks to the unwavering support of her case manager and the resources provided by Kids First. We highlight the organization's commitment to empowerment and self-sustainability, and the importance of diverse funding sources and community partnerships.
