    Thankful
    As the founder of ScreenStrong, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jamie. This episode shares about the important work we are doing to prevent screen problems and reclaim kids from toxic screens: social media, video games, and pornography. Truman Charities does a great job sharing our story and helping reach others so they know they are not alone in the screen conflicts they are facing. I think listeners will find this conversation educational and encouraging, plus be provided resources that can impact their families and schools. We are grateful for the Truman Charities Podcast!

    For the Cubs
    This was a great listen - learning about the importance of hugs, how to nurture our kids sense of belonging and learning more about child welfare and kids in foster care was insightful as a parent and human.

    Heartfelt Thanks !!
    I had the best time chatting on the Truman Charities Podcast! It was a wonderful opportunity to discuss the heart work (not hard work!) we do at FurnishHopeDC. Our conversation about life in Wards 7 & 8 highlighted how essential furniture support is for our community, especially when even finding a decent bath towel can be a challenge! A huge thank you to the Truman Charities Podcast for giving us a platform to share our stories. We're also thrilled to have received a generous $250 donation from the Truman Charities donor-advised fund. Your support truly warms our hearts and will help us make a difference! Keep shining, Truman Charities! 🌟

    Casa de Abby
    It was a true blessing to be able to share about our mission here in Honduras. Jamie was amazing host and with this being my first podcast helped me understand the process with ease. Thank you Jamie and Truman Charites for taking the time and giving me the space to share about this horrific problem of child sex abuse and trafficking in Honduras. God bless

    Meals on Wheels
    Jamie, thank you for the thoughtful and informative podcast about meals on wheels. I had no idea that senior isolation was an issue they are tackling in addition to hunger. It’s great to hear how creative, fresh and healthy the food is.
  • Hannah Downing
    Very inspiring Podcast!
    Wow, this was such a wonderful podcast about overcoming the many obstacles you face when you are missing a father figure from a young age. It was so inspiring to hear the voice from each of the different people you interviewed from the Vanishing Fathers book. I loved hearing their advise for future fathers and the loved the way you broke it into episodes and you could really hear and focus for each one. Also so generous that all proceeds will go to charity. Congrats on creating such a well done podcast that I am sure will help and inspire many!

    Ep93- Author Keshia LaVett- Combating Ableism
    It was such an honor and a delight to share my story as well as elevate my cause on the Truman Charities podcast. Ableism is a barricade that holds back so many ambitious individuals. This podcast has helped me raise a much needed awareness about this type of discrimination. This was my first interview since releasing the novel, and Jamie made me feel right at home. The conversations were meaningful and profound, yet lighthearted and fun! I agree and support the Truman charities mission. Great people with beautiful hearts! Keshia LaVett

    Dr. Ludy Green - Ep. 89
    The Truman Charities Podcast is such a remarkable resource! Thank you to Jamie for the great conversation and bringing light to the issue of domestic abuse and violence against women in society today. I was honored to be a part of the program to share my knowledge and what is being done to help victims and survivors of abuse gain their financial independence. I’m inspired by all the guests who have been on to share their passions and spread awareness about many important issues!

    A Podcast That Cares!
    Jamie, keep up the great work that you do. Your podcast is inspiring and informative. When good people get together- great things happen! You are making it happen.
  • EmilyH03
    Inspiring and Helpful
    I loved Episode 82 full of practical advice on how we can get our children involved in the community while growing their empathy and teaching them to plan, evaluate, serve, and grow. Such great real life tips, that are inspiring!
  • Mark Bergel
    The Shared Humanity Project
    Jamie did a great job of asking the right questions and seeking the most critical information. If we just step back and look at the suffering and struggles so many of our neighbors endure each day, we would bring greater urgency and pursue new approaches to poverty. It doesn’t matter what political perspectives one has or what one believes, in general. And it’s not about relying more on the government to solve issues. In fact, it’s more about what we can do in our own circles in creating opportunities. That - and more - is the focus of my work, and I am grateful to have had this platform to share some ideas.

    Great interview with Art Alexakis!
