The Heart of Giving Podcast

The Heart of Giving Podcast is hosted by Bennett Weiner, President and CEO of BBB Wise Giving Alliance. The weekly podcast celebrates the transformative effects that giving and service have on the human spirit and community.

As host, Bennett interviews a diverse range of guests including non-profit leaders, social entrepreneurs, business executives, celebrities, authors, and everyday heroes about their experiences with philanthropy and community service. The conversations spotlight inspirational stories of how giving back has impacted the lives of his guests and the people they serve.

Through storytelling and thoughtful discussion, The Heart of Giving Podcast explores the meaningful reasons, profound effects, and personal fulfillment that come from supporting worthy causes and helping others in need. The podcast aims to educate and encourage listeners to embrace the spirit of generosity. We would like to thank GoFundMe for its support of the Heart of Giving podcast.
