In this episode of the Going Big! Podcast, host Kevin Gentry sits down with François de Kerret, the CEO and co-founder of Zeffy, a zero-fee fundraising platform now used by more than 50,000 nonprofits.

François shares how a simple frustration he experienced while trying to volunteer turned into a platform that has helped nonprofits process over one billion dollars in donations. He explains why nonprofits deserve world-class technology, why overhead should not hold back impact, and how transparency and generosity from donors make Zeffy’s model work.

Kevin and François talk about what it takes to scale something everyone said “would not work,” how young founders can think bigger, and why risk-taking often feels different in the nonprofit world. They also dig into hiring great people, staying true to your mission, and what separates small thinkers from big thinkers.

One of the most inspiring themes in this episode is François’s core mindset:

Imagine that whatever you try will work. What would you do? Then ask what is really stopping you from doing it.

It is exactly the kind of optimistic, action-oriented thinking that defines Going Big! and the leaders who change the world around them.

If you lead, support, or believe in nonprofits, this episode will give you fresh optimism and practical encouragement to think bigger, take bolder steps, and build for lasting impact.
