Description

Welcome to Day 2 of Mental Health Week on the We Are For Good Podcast.  Don't miss our roundup of resources to dig deeper at weareforgood.com/mentalhealthMeet Muneer. As the VP of Foundation, Government, and Corporate Partnerships at The Trevor Project, Muneer’s team focuses on building impact-centered long-term partnerships with some of the world’s largest companies and foundations to help end LGBTQ youth suicide. Companies are not experts in impact. So when we walk into a room with our corporate ask, Muneer says we need to do that through education steeped in our expertise. He’s taking corporate partnerships and ethical movement-building to the next level with his wise counsel and vulnerable storytelling.Episode HighlightsMuneer’s story and journey to where he is today (3:00)The story, mission, and programs of The Trevor Project (15:00)Values based fundraising and partnerships (24:00)A powerful moment of philanthropy in Muneer’s life (33:00)Current stats around LGBTQ youth and how you can help (42:00)Muneer’s One Good Thing: Do not be afraid to exercise the power your seat at the table gives you.

Givebutter empowers missions across the country and those on the frontlines of de-stigmatizing mental health, like NAMI Nevada.Throughout the pandemic, quarantine and social distancing requirements were contributing to a massive increase in anxiety and depressive disorders across their state. So NAMI Nevada put together an innovative fundraiser powered by Givebutter to introduce the greater Nevada community to ways they can move forward—no matter the circumstance they were dealing with. They eclipsed the goal of their crowdfunding campaign and shared how much they loved Givebutter’s ease of use and the power of its human-to-human connectivity to grow their impact.You can watch their full success story at the link in our shownotes, and or learn more at givebutter.com.About our Sponsor CosmicLooking to nail your impact story, build brand awareness, and inspire action for your cause today?
