How to Build a Nonprofit

How to Build a Nonprofit isn’t your typical “thought leader” podcast. It’s real talk with real people who’ve dared to start something meaningful—and managed to keep it going (most days). Each episode dives into the messy, inspiring, behind-the-scenes stories of nonprofit founders and builders. We talk about the stuff people don’t usually put on grant reports—burnout, bad board decisions, flopped fundraisers, surprising wins, and the little pivots that made a big difference. If you’re starting a nonprofit, scaling one, or just wondering if you’re the only one making it up as you go… you’re in the right place. This show is here to remind you: you’re not alone, you’re not crazy, and yes—this work is still worth doing.

On a Mission to Free My Sisters | Stacey Borden, New Beginnings Reentry Services

Stacey Borden has a lot to say. After years stuck in a cycle of addiction and incarceration as a result of unaddressed childhood trauma, she’s making up for lost time. Since she began on this pathway in 2008, she’s helped people from her community overturn wrongful convictions through participatory defense, created a safe place for them to live and transition back into the community after their incarceration, and setup programs in partnership with institutions across Boston to help survivors of sexual abuse, domestic violence, and incarceration move towards healing and transformation.

In this episode, she talks about the impact of the heroin epidemic in her community, the influence of her parents on her social justice career, the difference between accountability and punishment, and the fundraising efforts that converted her dream into reality almost overnight.
