In light of the giving season, we’re flipping the script! Instead of chatting with nonprofit thought leaders, we are highlighting the most touching stories of individuals who fiercely support nonprofits and their “why.”

Because without supporters, nonprofits couldn’t exist.

During the 12-day series, Maria will be exploring topics surrounding: hardships, perseverance, fundraising, social media, and the importance and value of online community.

On this episode, Maria is chatting with Keelin Hodgkins DiMario. To say that running is a huge part of Keelin's life would be an understatement. She runs every single day - running her first of many marathons in 2013.

Keelin also runs with her Aunt Cassie in mind,  a loved one lost to pancreatic cancer.

Now, as a Project Purple ambassador, Keelin is committed to moving with purpose and runs for a world without pancreatic cancer.
