I want them to have a warm glow if you will, but I really want the person that is inherently generous. That fundamentally believes in our mission and, and knows and trusts that we're going to make an impact.” - Scott Niermann “Anything we can do on this podcast to inspire more people, any donors, any board members listening out there, this is good for them.
