I am truly honored to have Meghan Walsh, the Founder and Board Chair for Roots Ethiopia on the podcast today. Not only is Meghan a trained cultural anthropologist and former social studies teacher, she was also a member of my monthly giving program mastermind this summer, and I am SO proud of what she's created!
Today we're talking about WHY a monthly giving program was a priority for her organization, the goals for their program, and some juicy behind the scenes stories of what happened once the program went live. Roots Ethiopia is doing amazing things in the world as they help children living in extreme poverty go to school. Let's go meet Meghan!
