Generous Impact

Today, we are joined by Jorge Medina, the CEO of Texas Diaper Bank.  Listeners are in for an inspiring story of meeting people’s basic needs with dignity and respect without judgement.  And, the show is full of leadership pearls of wisdom such as, “You don’t want to be solving a problem while creating a problem.”  Jorge talks about how he keeps his emotional cup full and focuses on ensuring his team stays mission driven and not burned out.

Today we are joined by Lian Loop of Generous Benefits.  But, she’s not been asked to be on the show for Generous Benefits.  She’s been asked here because she’s been a selfless volunteer in many organizations over the years and through many seasons of life.  We hope her volunteering experience will inspire others to find the time to give back in some way to make their little corner of the world a little better.

In this episode, you’ll meet Timothy Robinson and Lauri Kelley of Inspired to Help. Timothy is the Founder and Chairman of the Board and Lauri is the Director of Corporate Giving. We think you’ll be inspired when you hear about their work with the unhoused, senior citizens, and youth. Where there is a need, they will find a way to help. Learn more at InspiredToHelp.org.

Now in Austin, Alliance has assisted over 1000 refugees, embodying the organization's mission of making people feel more than welcome.

Bret and Amanda Brummitt, our hosts, share the concept of Generous Impact.  It's a show dedicated to sharing the stories of humans improving their communities and making the world a better place.
