Nonprofit leaders often feel stuck between wanting to make a real impact and struggling to get people to care. With attention spans shrinking and skepticism about charitable giving growing, how do you break through the noise and actually inspire action? You're constantly trying to build trust with donors and rally support, but even when the mission is noble, the response can feel underwhelming. What if your biggest hurdle isn't the cause itself, but the way you're communicating it?

In this episode, host Kyle Reed sits down with Scott Harrison, founder of Charity: Water, to uncover how a simple, clear message has raised over $1 billion and served more than 20 million people. Scott shares how he turned birthdays into global fundraisers, built trust with a 100% donation model, and why nonprofits must innovate their messaging like any modern brand. Tune in for practical messaging insights that apply to every mission-driven leader.
