Ep. 1: A Mother's Murder and Ep. 2: 21st Century Fundraising
Kathryn interviews award-winning journalist Nancy Rommelmann, author of “To The Bridge: A True Story of Motherhood and Murder”. In 2009 Amanda Stott-Smith dropped her 2 children from a bridge. Her 4 year-old son died while her 7 year-old daughter survived. After years of investigation, Rommelmann chronicles this tragedy in a delicately balanced piece of reporting looking into how such a crime can occur. Rommelmann is featured in The NYTimes, LA Weekly and The Wall Street Journal. Kathryn also interviews MarketSmart Founder and CEO Greg Warner, author of “Engagement Fundraising: How to Raise More Money for Less in the 21st Century”. If you want a piece of the charitable giving pie for your own organization, you need to grab innovation by the horns – especially when it comes to marketing to long-term and high-yield donors. Warner has built a dedicated following of organizations, including the Special Olympics, Boys and Girls Clubs, World Wildlife Federation and The Salvation Army.
