Welcome to the new PhilanthroThink Podcast series from Carleton University’s Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership (MPNL) program. We’re thrilled to launch it as MPNL students. The series features wealth creators, philanthropic leaders and innovative thinkers in Canada. Their insights will be invaluable to many in the philanthropic and nonprofit sector and community.

Episode 1: Rethinking Trust-Based Philanthropy

In our debut episode, we sit down with Linsey Sherman-Zekulin, a dynamic nonprofit leader, philanthropist and co-founder of Happy Roots Foundation, a private charitable foundation in Ottawa, and Sororal, a femme-focused travel and advocacy brand. At Happy Roots, Linsey is championing a trust-based approach to philanthropy and grant-making, something she discusses in Episode 1. You can find it below or on YouTubeApple Podcasts or Spotify.

Thank you to IG Private Wealth Management for a grant to make the PhilanthroThink Podcast series possible.
