The 3W Podcast: Linda Phillips

The 3W Podcast

Join me, Kasie Yokley, and my dear friend Linda Phillips as we take a heartfelt stroll down memory lane, celebrating the Northwest Arkansas Children's Shelter's monumental 30th anniversary. Our podcast episode is brimming with stories of compassion, as we underscore the shelter's vital role in nurturing children through crises. Revel in the behind-the-scenes tales of the nonprofit's Kentucky Derby-inspired fundraising extravaganza, resplendent with festive contests and delectable Derby cuisine. We also tease the delights of the Vintner Dinner event, promising an affair to remember with its superb wine selections.

Linda and I dive into the warmth of our community's embrace, discussing the innovative ways our neighbors contribute to the shelter's mission, from joy-sparking lemonade stands to meaningful birthday donations. Experience the anticipation as we set our sights on a $30,000 goal for this year's Derby fundraiser, a sum destined to unlock enriching summer programs for the children. We reflect on the poignancy of "sweat equity" in philanthropy and the profound impact that personal involvement has on the lives of these precious young ones at Hope Academy.

As we wrap up this episode, we honor the dedication of volunteers who've become the backbone of our support system. Linda and I extend our deepest gratitude to you, our listeners, for joining our cause and helping to weave a brighter future for the children of Northwest Arkansas.
