Show Notes

During the recent Citygate Network 2019 Conference in Palm Springs, CA, we got the chance to sit down with our new friend, Richard Newcomb, Vice President of Philanthropy and Social Enterprise at Union Rescue Mission in Los Angeles.

During our conversation, Richard shared several key insights with me and my guest co-host, Shawn Saunders of Dickerson Bakker & Associates.  Richard talks with us about the challenges of building awareness and raising funds in a heavily crowded market like Los Angeles, and the growing need for innovation and change to address the growing homeless crisis in Los Angeles. He also shares a story of the bold and compassionate leadership of Union Rescue Mission's CEO, Andy Bales. You won't want to miss this episode!
