After spending almost 20 years in the charitable giving world, I realized it's time to help more nonprofits thrive rather than just survive, while also helping those who have MONEY TO GIVE find top organizations that are deserving of their donations.

In this episode of Money to Give, Rick Peck sits down with Mitzi Perdue—author, humanitarian, philanthropist, and war correspondent—for a powerful conversation about service, compassion, and finding purpose through helping others. Inspired by the philanthropic values of her family, including the founders of the Sheraton Hotel chain and Perdue Farms, Mitzi shares how a commitment to giving has shaped every chapter of her life. Today, she continues that mission through humanitarian work in Ukraine, documenting war crimes, and supporting innovative solutions for people affected by conflict. Throughout the episode, Mitzi reflects on the lessons that defined her understanding of generosity. She recalls her father's belief that \"the greatest pleasure that all my money has ever given me is in giving it away,\" and her mother's encouragement to act quickly whenever an opportunity arises to help someone in need. Those principles became the foundation for a life centered on service rather than success, reminding listeners that true legacy is measured by the lives we touch, not the wealth we accumulate. The conversation also explores Mitzi's work in Ukraine, where she has witnessed both the devastation of war and the remarkable resilience of its people. She explains how storytelling serves as an act of advocacy by preserving truth, honoring survivors, and inspiring others to care.
