  • PIP 057: Pioneering The Flash Charity Campaign Model - Chive Charities

    Chive Charities is committed to championing the underdogs. Targeting three specific causes: rare medical diagnoses, first responders & veterans, and special education initiatives, Chive Charities spreads awareness through sharing the personal stories of grit, courage, and never giving up. They have changed the giving paradigm. As opposed to using the cause to raise awareness on behalf of the recipient, they encourage the recipient to let their story raise awareness for their cause. Donors are connected to the entire story from beginning to end - Chive Charities watch their recipients go out into the world to do incredible things, and they are right are right beside them. 

    More info: https://chivecharities.org/

    In this episode we talk to the executive director of Chive Charities, Brian Mercedes.
