Melissa Metcalf Le RoyA Must-Listen for Nonprofit Leaders Seeking Sustainability and Growth!I had the privilege of joining Dr. Patton McDowell on Your Path to Nonprofit Leadership for episode 302, and it was a fantastic experience! Patton brings deep expertise and thoughtful conversation to every episode, making it an invaluable resource for nonprofit leaders at all stages of their journey. In our discussion on Nonprofit Success Through Donor Relationships, we explored key strategies to build sustainable funding models and enhance donor engagement—critical insights for any nonprofit professional looking to grow their impact. The podcast consistently delivers relevant, actionable advice, and I always look forward to new episodes to stay informed on the latest trends in nonprofit leadership. Highly recommend giving it a listen!

Alex425xyzInsightful interviewsI listened to last Thursday’s episode with Manuel Campbell and he had some great insight into nonprofit leadership and what it takes to go from a side passion project to a fully-developed plan that can impact the community at large. Manuel’s childhood, growing up with entrepreneurial-minded mentors, really resonated with me as a small-business owner and grabbed my attention from the first five minutes of the episode. Patton asked thought-provoking questions which allowed Manuel to respond with great detail on his experiences - a true testament to his hosting.
