It's that time of year again. A time to reflect, give, share, and grow - to express gratitude.
Show Description

In light of the giving season, we’re flipping the script! Instead of chatting with nonprofit thought leaders, we are highlighting the most touching stories of individuals who fiercely support nonprofits and their “why.”

Because without supporters, nonprofits couldn’t exist.

During the 12-day series, Maria will be exploring topics surrounding: hardships, perseverance, fundraising, social media, and the importance and value of online community.

On this episode, Maria is chatting with Aline Lileng. Aline received a breast cancer diagnoses almost a year ago. Needless to say, she was less than thrilled about joining the pink ribbon club. However, after she participated in an online fitness challenge group in support of Susan G. Komen, the warmth, motivation, and positivity of the community led to a shift in what the pink ribbon symbolizes for her.
