I feel so privileged to share the voice and perspective of another amazing woman in philanthropy. Gosia Brzezinska is the co-founder of BB Partners, Advisory for Changemakers.

In this episode, we speak about her role in social change and why philanthropy needs to consider communication as an impact tool. We also delve into the media's narrow-sightedness at primarily spotlighting Western philanthropists and how communications can help shift this focus.

Welcome back to episode 2 of Women in Philanthropy

Welcome back to episode 2 of Women in Philanthropy!

In this episode, Robin Heller speaks about her role as a fundraiser and President of The Athena Advisors Consulting. In Robin's words, fundraising helps "marshall resources for social change". Yet, money can often be an uncomfortable topic for people. Robin reflects on how the Board of Trustees, CEOs, and even jobseekers, can become more comfortable with their money conversations.

This episode is slightly longer as Robin answers a listener's question, "How can women better negotiate their salaries?" Reflecting a view that "there is enough", she describes how money, mentorship, and resources are in abundance if we are ready to listen to others and ask for what we need.

Share your thoughts on our episode question: What tips do you have for negotiating your salary?

Robin also describes several worst philanthropic jargon words, why women philanthropists are an inspiring trend, and why philanthropy's next needed role is the "philanthropy beat".

You can learn more about Robin's work at Athena Advisors and the Raising Upwards Fellowship for fundraising.

*******************************

Women in Philanthropy is a podcast by and for women working in the giving and social impact sector. Fundraisers, grantmakers, advisors. You can't always see behind the scenes in giving, which means you can't see who enables this giving. This podcast hopes to connect women across the sector and borders. It seeks to amplify women's experiences working in philanthropy, which have too often been overlooked in our research and histories.

We look forward to bringing you ~15-minute episodes, connecting you with amazing women and hearing the stories of their philanthropic work.

Today 27 primary school children (R - Y6) received

Today 27 primary school children (R - Y6) received their ACE Action Badge. ACE is an initiative to cultivate and recognise the advocacy and community engagements of young children.

The development of ACE Action was inspired by the legacy of a former headteacher, to commerate the engagement he showed for the school and the community.

Bringing the initiative was through a partnership between the school, the PTA, and the local governing body.

Today's awards were just a start to encourage children to take action, reflect on their actions, to share them with a wider group, and to be recognised for these efforts.

Over the years, I have known so many amazing women

Over the years, I have known so many amazing women working in philanthropy. A few friends sparked the first idea of sharing these stories during our monthly dim sum meet-ups. There are so many STORIES to be shared about working in philanthropy! Yet, in my doctoral research, I found that most of these accounts are told from a male perspective.

Through the support of the Women In Philanthropy at The Conduit London, I've learned how to podcast. Each 15-minute episode reflects on women working in philanthropy, how her role(s) enable giving, and the issues which need airing from her point of view.

This first pilot episode is possible because of women believing in the possibilities of this project and in me. Dilys Winterkorn kindly shares her story of being a philanthropic advisor and of the challenges of inclusion within the sector.

If you are a woman working in philanthropy, I hope this podcast connects you with others, and if you would like to share your story, please get in touch. I plan to continue throughout 2023, as I continue honing my many new podcasting learnings.
