Welcome to Day 4 of Mental Health Week on the We Are For Good Podcast.  Don't miss our roundup of resources to dig deeper at weareforgood.com/mentalhealth

Meet Nneka. She is the author and joint editor of a book featuring first-person narratives of 15 Black fundraisers in the U.S. and Canada. It's a painfully raw glimpse into the harsh realities that still exist for our black fundraiser friends (many of whom you've heard on this podcast). Unwinding systems of power start with sharing story. We hope you'll join us around Mom's Kitchen Table to talk about how to be a Pioneer and Champion of this movement. We need you.
