Hi, I'm Jeff Holden. Welcome to the Nonprofit Podcast Network. Our purpose and passion is to highlight a nonprofit organization in each weekly episode, giving that organization an opportunity to tell their story in their words, to better inform and educate the respective communities they serve, as well as provide one more tool for them to share their message to constituents and donors. Thank you. Captrust, fiduciary advice for endowments and foundations. Runyon Saltzman Incorporated, rse, marketing, advertising and public relations, creating integrated communications committed to improving lives. And Western Health Advantage, a full-service health care plan for individuals, employer groups and families. I hope you noticed that's not our typical music bed up front and that's because I want to say thank you.

This past 10 months since we've launched the Nonprofit Podcast Network has been nothing short of amazing. Thank you to the three companies and their leadership for seeing the vision and value of what I proposed. That allowed us to take the Nonprofit Podcast Network to a weekly and fixed cadence that serves our nonprofit community with a pro bono podcast to support their outreach. Captrust, rse, marketing and Advertising, and Western Health Advantage you guys got this thing started. Thank you to the leadership of the over 60 organizations that have joined me in studio to record their episode. You have taught me so much about the needs in our community, about collaboration and funding and service, and I have so much about the needs in our community about collaboration and funding and service, and I have so much more yet to learn. You demonstrated creativity in taking your episodes beyond what I thought you would do with them. I mean, I saw the podcast as a great marketing tool to share and get your message out to more people more often. But you added to that. You began submitting the podcast with your grants. You began using it for recruitment. It's even been used in a college classroom for case studies. I mean, how about that? And I'm sure you're going to come up with even more ways to greater and greater value from it as we go ahead. How cool is that? We had so much information to share that we started the nonprofit news pod to help promote key dates, calls for entries or big events, big day of giving anyone.

Thank you to my team, who have worked so hard to edit, to produce and deliver a weekly episode that every organization can be proud to share, especially our producer, sawyer Milam. He makes it work every single week.
