## Resource

What happens when nonprofits around the world are facing greater demand for services — but fewer flexible resources to meet those growing needs? In this episode of Money to Give, Rick Peck sits down with Jessie Krafft for a timely and thought-provoking conversation about the future of global philanthropy, donor trust, and nonprofit resilience. Drawing from insights in the newly released World Giving Report, Jessie explains how charities across more than 100 countries are navigating rising demand, shrinking government support, workforce challenges, and increasing pressure to demonstrate transparency and impact. The conversation also explores the surprising disconnect between what donors say they need from nonprofits and what organizations believe they are already providing. Throughout the episode, Jessie and Rick unpack why unrestricted and flexible funding may be more important now than ever before. From lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic to the growing importance of trust-based philanthropy, they discuss how nonprofits can build stronger long-term resilience through better communication, leadership, operational capacity, and donor relationships. Jessie also shares practical insights into nonprofit sustainability, global giving trends, transparency, storytelling, board governance, and why investing in nonprofit infrastructure is critical to solving some of the world’s most urgent challenges. Whether you are a donor, nonprofit leader, advisor, fundraiser, or someone passionate about creating meaningful impact, this episode offers a powerful global perspective on how trust, flexibility, and collaboration can strengthen the charitable sector for years to come.
