On the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust Writing Great Grants Podcast, we bring together voices across the nonprofit and philanthropic space to share advice on navigating the grant application process.
Our goal is to present conversations that help shed light on the grantmaking process to better serve nonprofits so that they can continue to flourish and thrive as they seek to serve the common good of our communities.

In 2020, the Leadership Now conference gathered a diverse collection of some of the brightest voices in leadership today across a variety of backgrounds. This podcast shares their remarks unabridged.
