Want to be more informed? Looking for a way to fill your long commute? Interested in something new? Do you prefer audiobooks to reading? If you answered yes to any of these questions then podcasts may be the solution you’re looking for. Over the last 10 years the podcasting industry has grown into a powerful and popular platform for sharing information. There are thousands of podcasts to choose from on any topic you can possibly think of. And with our phones constantly at our fingertips, it’s now easier than ever to find, listen, and subscribe!

Podcasts are portable, customizable, and are an excellent way to get your knowledge fix OR a fun way to stay entertained while on the go. Personally, I love listening to podcasts! My library is full of comedy shows, how to/quick fix talks, and I am currently invested in a docuseries on sustainable agricultural practices.

As a young professional in the nonprofit world, I wanted to be up to date on the latest industry news and overall feel more connected- but was having a hard time with my busy schedule. While I was looking for a new podcast to get into, I had an idea and decided to do a quick search to see what the podcasting world had to offer when it came to the nonprofit sphere. I was thrilled to see that my search brought up a TON of great channels that discussed the latest nonprofit trends, volunteer strategies, and social innovations.

The following list of podcasts have been great tools for me to gain useful knowledge into the nonprofit world and I highly recommend them to you- especially if you are also a nonprofit professional.
