Pollinating Purpose is a show from Pillar Nonprofit Network all about supporting organizations who seek to create social impact through their work. Whether nonprofit, for-profit, or grassroots organizations, listeners will learn key considerations to building or growing their own social purpose businesses in a long-term and sustainable way. Alongside this learning, they will have the opportunity to listen to guests share stories of doing similar work in their own communities; the sticky spots, the highlights, and the barriers they had to navigate to operate a business with community care at its core.
Our hope is to educate, inform, and inspire the audience on how to make the best decisions for them, their organization, and the community they seek to support. A just, equitable, and joyful future is possible when we centre care in the work that we do.
