On this episode
At the end of a challenging year that disproportionately impacted the nonprofit sector, we're bringing you an episode of celebration featuring those whose efforts went above and beyond during this historically difficult time. In November 2021, Charity Village launched our inaugural CharityVillage Conference and Awards, honouring the commitment, passion and drive shown by those who made meaningful and outstanding contributions to their organizations and communities this year.
Since the award winners were announced, our communication channels have been buzzing with questions about what the winners did that really made them stand out and helped them win the votes of our expert judges. In this episode, join our host, CharityVillage President Mary Barroll, as she sits down with our award winners to learn their secrets to success and how you can put their learning into action at your organization.
