Meet Bob McGough with the non-profit, Hilltop Howlers, in Montgomery, AL. Non-profit organizations want to help a cause, and this one is no different! We had so much fun discussing how you set up a non-profit, how to find an audience to support your mission, and then how to make it work in your neighborhood. I learned a ton from Bob, and have a much better understanding as to what goes into this endeavor. You will not be disappointed! Check out the timestamp below, this episode is jam packed with great information.
