About
us

Philanthropolis is a podcast about the people behind nonprofits, charities and organizations making a meaningful difference around the world. A new conversation every two weeks.

Our mission

Every two weeks we sit down with the people behind the nonprofits, charities and organizations making a meaningful difference around the world. No PR spin. Just the story of who they are, and why they do it.

01

People

Who they are before the title and the org chart. The career they left, the risk they took, the life they were living when it all started.

02

Passions

What led them to their cause. The moment, the loss, the trip or the conversation that made walking away from “normal” feel impossible not to.

03

Purpose

The people they’re helping and the impact they’re making, told plainly, so you leave knowing exactly how to back the work.

When good people get together, doing good things, great things happen.
