The Real Reasons Society Feels More Divided Than Ever

In this episode of Bold Voices, we explore one of the most urgent and complex challenges of our time: human rights, peace, and the growing tension shaping our world today. Host Ellen Jaffe sits down with Dr. Michael Horswell, Dean of Florida Atlantic University’s Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, to discuss the work of the Center for Peace, Justice and Human Rights, and why education may be the most powerful tool we have to combat hate, misinformation, and division. From the rise in hate crimes to the global surge in conflict and migration, this conversation unpacks how history, critical thinking, and interdisciplinary education can shape future leaders equipped to navigate an increasingly polarized world. The episode dives into the role of social media and AI in distorting truth, the importance of trusted journalism, and how teaching subjects like the Holocaust and slavery can reduce hate and foster empathy.

Where Generosity Meets Strategy: Year-end Giving, Tax Law Changes, Complex Gifts and Family Philanthropy

As the year comes to a close, generosity takes center stage — but impactful giving is about far more than writing a check. In this episode of Bold Voices, host Ellen Jaffe sits down with Kelly Marmol, Vice President of Philanthropic Services at the Community Foundation of Broward, to unpack what donors need to know about year-end giving, donor-advised funds, legacy planning, and upcoming tax law changes that could significantly affect charitable impact. Kelly explains why nearly a third of all charitable giving happens in the final weeks of the year, how new tax rules may change the way people give starting in 2026, and why now is a critical moment for donors to plan strategically. The conversation also explores how philanthropy strengthens families across generations, how complex gifts like stock or real estate can unlock greater impact, and why values-based giving leads to deeper fulfillment. Most importantly, this episode reveals how thoughtful philanthropy doesn’t just benefit nonprofits — it changes lives, builds community, and reflects a belief at the heart of the Community Foundation of Broward: when we lead with love, generosity becomes transformational.

Giving Students The World: How Learning Without Borders Changes Lives

What if a scholarship didn’t just pay for school - but changed how you see the world? In this episode of Bold Voices, host Ellen Jaffe sits down with Nancy Lynn Brown, founder of the Nancy Lynn Brown Scholarship Fund, to explore a powerful idea: education doesn’t end at the classroom door - sometimes it begins with a passport. Unlike traditional scholarships, Nancy’s charitable fund at the Community Foundation of Broward supports study-abroad experiences for students with financial need, opening doors to global cultures, perspectives, and life-altering moments many never imagined possible. From Switzerland to Japan, Italy to India, recipients return not only with academic credits, but with broadened minds, renewed purpose, and a deeper understanding of the world - and their place in it. You’ll hear how one summer abroad transformed Nancy’s own life, why she believes travel is a critical (and often overlooked) form of education, and how the Community Foundation of Broward helped turn a deeply personal passion into a lasting philanthropic legacy. The conversation also explores the Legacy Society, the long-term power of endowment giving, and what it truly means to lead with love. This is a story about curiosity, courage, generosity — and how one person’s journey can expand the horizons of an entire community. Learn More: https://cfbroward.link/Nancy-Lynn-Brown
