Helping Donors Give Wisely

In this week's episode, we reflect on the history of the Heart of Giving Podcast and turn the focus on people doing impactful work in their communities, rather than talking about the work of big organizations.

Last week it was Hurricane Fiona hitting Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, this week it’s Hurricane Ian threatening the West Coast of Florida.

In this week's episode, our guest is Tim Kachuriak, the Founder and Chief Innovation and Optimization Officer for NextAfter, a fundraising research lab consultancy, and training institute that works with charities, nonprofits, and NGOs to help them grow their resource capacity. This episode of the Heart of Giving podcast is made possible with the generous support of B Generous, a firm that enables donors to give now and pay later.

Con el paso del huracán Fiona por Puerto Rico, República Dominicana, y otras islas del Caribe, sus habitantes sufren con inundaciones, daños a la infraestructura eléctrica, desplazamiento de hogares, y falta de acceso a necesidades básicas como el agua limpia.

As Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and other nearby Caribbean islands have been impacted by Hurricane Fiona and suffer from floods, power outages, home displacements and access to basic necessities such as safe water, many charitable organizations are seeking to provide emergency relief and assistance.

This edition represents the 400th post! Over seven and a half years ago, on January 14, 2015, the first entry of Wise Giving Wednesday was shared on Give.org.
