Episode notes

“I feel like George has brought together the pieces of a puzzle of equity with people, your organizations are approaching it from the arts, and from hygiene and literacy, it's just, lovely to see these different nonprofits surviving in this very difficult time and doing such great work”- Risa

Our featured voices are Executive Director of Simply the Basics, Meghan Freebeck, Interim Executive Director, of the San Francisco Girls Chorus Adriana Marcial, the CEO of LavaMaeX Kris Kepler, Word for Word’s Youth Arts program coordinator Amy Prosser and the President of the Board of the Children’s Book Project Risa Schwartz.

Welcome to our one-hour special show. Going into the fall we will be producing virtual live panel discussions on a monthly basis for these one hour special shows. We are bringing together both our past guests and new guests to update our community on their latest efforts to deal with the ongoing and ever changing covid-19 pandemic’s impact on their operations and survival as well as how the community can get engaged in supporting their work.

For more information about each of the nonprofit organizations featured on today’s one hour special virtual live panel discussion please listen to the interviews with word for word in episode 8, simply the basics in episode 16, lava mae x in episode 3, children’s book project in episode 6 and the san francisco girls chorus in episode 30
