Even though starting a nonprofit organization is difficult, it forces you to consider your larger life or business goals beyond revenue and profits. It is a tool that enables you to concentrate on the big picture and establish long-term goals and objectives that have the potential to change the lives of hundreds, thousands, or perhaps millions of people. In today’s episode of The Founder Spirit podcast, we are joined by Heather Ibrahim Leathers. She is the Founder and President of the Global Fund for Widows, the world's largest nonprofit organization dedicated to economically empowering widows in the developing world. With its focus on training and financing widows to build sustainable micro-enterprises, the Global Fund for Widows is the leading authority and voice for over 300 million widows around the world. How did she do it? Is there something you and I could learn from her experience? TUNE IN and be inspired! For detailed transcript and show notes, please visit TheFounderSpirit.com.
