    The More Funding the More Freedom for Kids, with Nate Lewis

    The More Funding the More Freedom for Kids, with Nate Lewis
    Join us for an eye-opening episode of Finding Certainty about human trafficking and the various efforts being made to help combat it. In this episode, Patrick sits down with Nate Lewis, the Development and Fundraising Director of the nonprofit organization, Operation Underground Railroad (O.U.R.), as part of his ongoing month-long series on the topic. Nate sheds light on the complexities and challenges faced by O.U.R. in their relentless pursuit to rescue victims of human trafficking, especially children, and help bring their perpetrators to justice. Tune in as they discuss: 1. Fundraising: Learn about the unique challenges non-profit organizations like O.U.R. encounter when raising funds to support their vital missions. Nate shares his insights into navigating the world of philanthropy and the strategies O.U.R. employs to secure the resources needed to help combat human trafficking more effectively. This is an important topic from which anyone with ties to fundraising or a worthwhile nonprofit in need can benefit. 2. Reciprocity: Explore the concept of reciprocity in the context of O.U.R.'s work and fundraising in general. Discover how nonprofit organizations can foster a sense of unity and collaboration among their supporters, volunteers, and survivors, create reciprocally beneficial programs, and “ripple effects,” as Patrick calls them and how, together, this is creating a powerful force against human trafficking. 3. Operation Underground Railroad: Get an inside look at O.U.R.'s operations, their global reach, and the incredible impact they've had in rescuing victims and dismantling trafficking networks. Understand the challenges they face and the resilience required to persevere. 4. Tim Ballard: Nate Lewis provides further insights into the recent transition of O.U.R.'s founder, Tim Ballard, on to new endeavors to further expand the work against trafficking around the world, and the organization's continued commitment to their mission despite leadership rearrangement. 5. Sound of Freedom: Learn about the film Sound of Freedom, which has brought attention to O.U.R.'s work but did not directly benefit the organization. Discover the complexities of media portrayals and the real-world impact on nonprofits. 6. Additional: Gain insights into a few new and innovative approaches to fundraising and how you can contribute to O.U.R. if you’d like to not to mention help raise more funds for any nonprofits (churches, schools, foundations, etc.) that you care about. This episode offers a deep dive into the world of human trafficking and the determination, creativity, and heart required by Operation Underground Railroad and organizations like them to combat this worldwide evil. Don't miss this informative and inspiring conversation on Finding Certainty. Learn how you can contribute to the mission of Operation Underground Railroad.

    Burned Out in Higher Ed? Lean Into to Prioritizing Yourself

    Burned Out in Higher Ed? Lean Into to Prioritizing Yourself

    Hello, fear. Thank you for being here. You’re my indication that I’m doing what I need to do.― Cheryl Strayed, Brave Enough

    As we embark on a new fall semester, it's essential to find joy in our work and recognize the impact stress and burnout can have on our productivity.

    The service-oriented nature of our work in higher education means that if burnout and stress go unchecked, it can negatively impact not only us but also students, faculty, and the community we work with. 

    We owe it to them and ourselves to address these challenges head-on. In this episode I highlight the need for finding joy in our work and maintaining balance amidst the ever-increasing demands.

    Kristina Turner

    Kristina Turner is really putting Montgomery on the map when it comes to design and creativity! With over a decade of experience working for in-house agencies around Alabama, her focus on rethinking legacy brands, overseeing digital experiences, and delivering award-winning visual storytelling means she’s definitely someone we need to keep an eye on.

    We talked a lot about her work as senior director of marketing and storytelling at Jeremiah Program, as well as her involvement as regional director for district seven of the American Advertising Federation. Of course, we both had to share our experiences about growing up between Selma and Montgomery, volunteering for national professional organizations, and she spoke about what keeps her in Montgomery and what that affords her as a creative. Kristina is really representing for the South, and I’m excited to see what else she’ll do in the future!

    Campaign '16 @Baruch : What Will He Actually Do?
    Baruch College presents a Presidential Policy Preview. What can we expect from his administration in the first 100 days? Will he push to have his agenda implemented in the form he expressed it in the campaign, or will he modify his goals once in office? Will the new president and the Congress be allies, or will they fight over budgets and policy priorities? Baruch has assembled an expert panel to provide brief overviews of nine policy and procedural arenas, including defense, immigration, workforce, education, the Supreme Court, and the role of the Congress.
