#153: Matthew Parks | Barbara Bush Children's Hospital

Graining In

This week, we’re honored to sit down with Matthew Parks, Director of Philanthropy at the Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital!
Matthew came into our orbit about 7 years ago, when @HesterBissell began exploring ways BBB could give back, leading to the Baby Genius partnership that has raised ~$50k for BBCH since. Matthew discusses the perpetual and limitless task of finding, securing, and maintaining philanthropic funds; balancing positivity and motivation when “you could always raise more”; the myriad ways ANYONE can contribute, and so much more.
He certainly took the long road to Maine, but you’re not going to find a better heart (or accent) on either side of the Atlantic — our conversation is available in full NOW, wherever you listen!
