Want to make a real difference this giving season?

We've got you covered.

We're joining Pods Fight Poverty,

teaming up with dozens of podcasts to do something big,

live three entire villages in Rwanda out of extreme poverty.

Podcasts bring us together, and now we're turning that connection into action.

You listen, you give, and together

we create impact bigger than anyone's show could on its own. Your donation will be delivered by

give directly as cash straight into the hands of families in need, no strings attached, no middlemen.

And with the giving multiplier boosting gifts from new donors with matching funds, our collective effort goes even further.

This holiday season, let's make a difference for those who need it most.

We're shooting for a million dollars raised before the end of the year,

which will lift over 700 families out of poverty.
