A podcast about doing good, well

The stories behind the impact — and the work that makes it possible.

Every week we sit down with a non-profit to talk about two things: the difference they make, and how they actually make it. The logistics, the people, the hard calls.

Kristy started Making An Impact after years of working alongside non-profits and noticing the same thing everywhere: the most interesting part of any organization isn't the mission statement — it's how the work actually gets done. On the show, she asks the questions a curious friend would ask, and lets guests tell the real story.

Know an organization she should talk to? Send it her way.

Every episode ends with one question: how can listeners help?

We keep a running list of what our guests actually need — donations, volunteers, specific skills. Start here.
