In this episode, your host Amy Milne gets real with Rick Kelley, Executive Director at SAY Detroit in Detroit, Michigan, a non-profit organization founded by author Mitch Albom, widely known for his best-selling memoir, Tuesdays with Morrie. In addition to a very successful annual Radiothon fundraiser, Rick walks us through EAT Detroit, a culinary experience that not only benefits SAY Detroit, but also local restaurants and other non-profits in the community. Rick smashes the stigma that supporting other charity partners is harmful and gives us some thoughtful advice around how to listen to your donors and bring them into your organization. Rick shares not only his passion for doing good in the world, but also his many 'Rickisms' that are sure to spark new ideas for you and your organization. Listen today and implement tomorrow.

You can reach out to Rick directly via the SAY Detroit website at www.saydetroit.org or on his LinkedIn profile.

"It takes a village; we are all in this together, there is no competition here." - Rick Kelley
