We sit down with GoFundMe's Amanda Brown Lierman (VP for Policy, Engagement, and Impact) for a no-holds-barred conversation that begins with the nonprofit sector's recent frustration: the unauthorized creation of over a million fundraising pages that cost organizations time and lots of anxiety. Amanda addresses this controversy head-on, answering tough questions submitted by our members. While accountability is key, the episode also addresses the future of fundraising; with $40 billion raised for individuals and nonprofits, GoFundMe remains a major force. We explore how nonprofits can bridge the looming funding crisis by embracing peer-to-peer (P2P) fundraising, specifically examining how Millennials and Gen Z give, the importance of social media conversion, and the strategy behind capturing the micro-donor. This is a crucial, honest, and sometimes hilarious conversation about holding allies accountable, protecting consent, and securing your organization's donor base for 2026 and beyond.

In our final episode, we're delivering a direct and inspiring call to action for board members everywhere. It's no secret that times are turbulent, and while we might feel like we're just using duct tape to hold everything together, board members play a more vital role than ever. We'll outline the crucial responsibilities and unique contributions that board members bring during periods of uncertainty, empowering you to lead with purpose and resilience. Tune in to hear from Anne Gingerich of Pennsylvania Association of Nonprofits, Mariane Asad Doyle of Center for Nonprofit Excellence in Virginia, and Jill Bennett of Utah Nonprofit Association as they inspire you to be a force for good—and share tips on how to use that duct tape to build something strong, not just hold together a mess.

Tired of the political division? We are too. It feels like everyone's shouting at each other, and your important mission is getting lost in the noise. This episode shows you how to rise above the fray and create a powerful, nonpartisan public policy agenda that can unite your board. Learn how to bridge diverse perspectives and build consensus to ensure your mission's voice is heard loud and clear in the halls of power, not just a whisper in the wind. Guests Danielle Clore of Kentucky Nonprofit Network and Marne Taylor of Oklahoma Center of Nonprofits will share their secrets to success and provide a blueprint for collective impact, proving that you can actually get things done without picking a side.
