In this timely episode, host Jarrett Ransom sits down with Kimberly O’Donnell, Chief Fundraising Officer at Bonterra, to unpack the rapidly evolving landscape of corporate social responsibility (CSR). As nonprofits face funding instability, policy shifts, and rising demands, Kimberly shares how organizations can move beyond resilience to become truly “antifragile”—growing stronger through change.
Together, they explore how corporate partners are rethinking giving strategies, what recent policy changes mean for funding, and how nonprofits can adapt through deeper relationships, creative engagement, and impactful storytelling.
