Practices at the Intersection of Innovation and Impact (Podcast)

Today, we continue our three-part series of ideas on innovation from the Purpose & Profit Podcast with an interview with Gabe Cooper, CEO and Founder of Virtuous, on best practices of innovation in nonprofit organizations. 

Virtuous is a nonprofit fundraising platform that provides tools for donor and volunteer management, fundraising, and marketing. 

As we continue our summer of Joie de Vivre, our family is investing time to create memories and expand our perspective, and I don’t want to leave you without content to help expand your viewpoint as well. 

This week’s featured episode is about best practices at the intersection of innovation and impact.
