Dr. Van Der Veer & Benjamin Bradburn of Fair Chance on Equal Opportunities for All Children

Through the Noise #226

Gretchen Van der Veer, PhD // Executive Director // Fair Chance
Benjamin Bradburn // Director of Development // Fair Chance

Most people (and certainly listeners of this podcast!) will agree that no one’s future should depend on the zip code where they were born. And today’s guests spend every day working to ensure each child actually has a “fair chance,” no matter where they were born and it’s also the apt title of their organization. Gretchen Van der Veer, Executive Director and Benjamin Bradburn, Director of Development join us to talk about the mission of Fair Chance and the strategic partnerships they form to help different nonprofits become more effective in their services. Similar to an accelerator for start-ups, their partnership program works with organizations for as little as six and as many as 24 months in several key areas of nonprofit management. Next episode we’ll delve a little deeper as we chat with one of Fair Chance’s partner organizations. PS: Like our work? Rate us on itunes!
