Host Peter McCully welcomes Rob Duncan, vice chairman of the Parksville Qualicum Foundation; 2024 marks the foundation's 25th anniversary.

Duncan sheds light on the impact of these grants on diverse organizations, ranging from the Society of Organized Services to emergency response organizations, support for hospices, educational initiatives and community engagement projects, emphasizing the local nature of the foundation's efforts.

"During the past 25 years, the total amount of grants and scholarships distributed by the foundation is $1.8 million,” said Duncan. “This represents all the funds we manage for both the foundation and for others.The idea is that all of the money raised in the community stays in the community."

On this episode of the Business of Biotech, we'll get to know Luke personally, we'll learn about his philanthropic work, and we'll give you a healthy dose of optimism as we look ahead to the next decade in biotech.

 Imagine sitting down with a local hero whose life is a testament to giving back, whose days are filled with serving his community, and whose greatest joys come from family and food. Welcome to our chat with Adam Marshall, an outstanding attorney born in Cleveland, and practicing in Georgia and Florida, with a big heart and a knack for making a difference. Adam shares his life's journey, his love for Mateos, his favorite local restaurant, and his belief in the power of family meals. His stories bring a refreshing perspective on the importance of a diverse diet and the real joy that comes from breaking bread together.

Ever wondered how sports can shape a family’s dynamic, or how a name change can stir such controversy? Join our lively discussion with Adam as he shares his take on the Cleveland Indians' name change to 'Guardians', the electrifying atmosphere at Atlanta United games, and the strategic prowess of the Atlanta Braves. Beyond the score, we delve into the emotional rollercoaster that sports can be - the highs and lows, the shared triumphs, the collective heartbreaks, and how these experiences bind us together.
 
 Philanthropy is at the heart of Michael's life, and he is making a real impact with his work at the YMCA, where he hosts the annual Shoot for a Change event. We explore the profound work done by Sofia's Hope, a charity that offers a helping hand to siblings of cancer patients. Adam's passion shines through as he discusses his commitment to providing foster kids with the opportunity to enjoy summer camp. Listen in and be inspired by his unwavering belief in the power of generosity and the difference one person can make. From food to family to philanthropy, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

On this week's podcast, we had the pleasure of speaking with Darrin Gray. Darrin serves professional athletes, coaches & alumni, and business leaders who support the worldwide sports ministry with Godly Leadership. The platform of sports leadership training provides pathways into boardrooms, classrooms, and sports locker rooms worldwide.

He currently serves on the executive leadership team of Athletes in Action, Lions Lead, and Center for Serving Leadership at the Sagamore Institute ~ an action-oriented Think Tank.

As Darrin says, "My ministry moves at the speed of relationship. And so those relationships are what I believe, define who I am."

Clint and Darrin will discuss:

1. How he transitioned from a sports journalist to a sports minister and leadership teacher.   
2. How his relationship came about with Tony Dungy and what impact it had on his life.
3. How do the NFL and other sport support their players with mentoring and character development as they enter their careers? 
4. Why anyone, athlete or layperson must find a great mentor, or how do they become one?
5. Darrin also shares his favorite story of a pro athlete and how he has seen him grow and overcome challenges to become a solid, inspiring man.

Darrin's calling was in the ministry of availability. Being present for other men so that they can ultimately get a clearer vision of who they are, what their purpose is, and how they can accomplish their goals. As Darrin stated, "The relationships, the people you surround yourself with will more often than not, determine your outcomes in life, and you tend to reflect the communities you're connected to. 

Top 3 Books Recommended by Darrin:

1. Celebration of Discipline
2. Catcher In The Rye
3. The Bible

Chuck Noll once said, "Champions are champions not because they do anything extraordinary but because they do the ordinary things better than anyone else."

Welcome to episode 36 of the Today is the Day Changemakers Podcast. This week my guest is Kathy Durante, Executive Director, OceanFirst Foundation.

Kathy was raised in Poughkeepsie, NY and Hamilton, NJ before moving on to Ocean County.   

Kathy's career started in the not-for-profit sector at what was then the Delaware Valley United Way.  With the nudge of someone she knew and trusted, Kathy decided to apply for the Executive Director position at the then, United Way of Ocean County, NJ.

She has since moved on from there and spent the last 18 years as the Executive Director of the OceanFirst Foundation where she is one of the organization's founding Directors. She comes to her work with the knowledge of being on both sides of the table.

She shares during the interview that mindsets need to change when it comes to the way not-for-profit work is thought of. She agrees that the important mission focused work should be referenced as 'for impact'. "Working in non-profit does not mean that you should be paid less or under resourced." 

OceanFirst Foundation is the first foundation in the nation to be established by a bank as part of an initial public offering. Since its inception, the Foundation has invested more than $42 million in community initiatives and programs with more than 8,300 grants awarded to hundreds of nonprofits and schools throughout central and southern New Jersey.

Kathy manages the day-to-day operation and oversees all aspects of the proposal submission and review processes, chairing the Foundation’s Major Grant Committee which is charged with recommending grants to the Foundation’s Board for consideration.

Under Kathy's leadership, the Foundation launched new initiatives and partnerships focused on meeting the needs of the local community. Kathy has helped many start-up nonprofits and new and experienced grant seekers to fine tune their skills.

Some of Kathy's awards include: Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore’s Women of Distinction Award, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ocean County’s Humanitarian Award, and named Women’s Advocate of the Year by Ocean County’s Advisory Commission on the Status of Women. Under her leadership, OceanFirst Foundation has been the proud recipient of numerous community awards.

Kathy goes on to share about the importance of taking risks and being ready for opportunities as they start to present themselves.

Listen in the hear Kathy's response to 'if I knew then what I know now'.

Thank you to Kathy for her time and sharing her passion about mission focused work. It is so valuable to all of us who are doing all we can to make a difference! 

Next week, my guest is Ivy Charmatz. Ivy is an Emmy Award Winning Executive Producer and Writer. During our interview we talk about sharing kindness, finding peace, and the art of storytelling. This is a great interview about the importance of connection.
