Carlos Baldovinos leads The Mission at Kern County, serving those who are experiencing homeless in Bakersfield, CA and surrounding communities.
I got the chance to interview Carlos at the Citygate Network 2019 conference earlier this month in beautiful Palm Springs, CA. My good friend Shawn Saunders from Dickerson Bakker & Associates was kind enough to guest host this episode with me.
During our conversation with Carlos, we touch on the growing crisis of homelessness in California, and specifically in the Kern County area. He shares with us the approach The Mission is taking to increase capacity to serve more people in need, and how he and his team successfully executed a recent capital campaign to grow their Mission. What's most interesting about this is that Carlos and his team decided not to engage a consultant in the process, and skipped the feasibility study phase of the campaign. Check out this podcast to learn how they did that, and what your organization might be able to learn from their approach.
