Chris Marlow on Innovating Non-Profit Work, Leading through Crisis, and Leveraging Data for Greater Impact

In this episode, Chris Marlow, Founder and CEO of Help One Now and Author of “Doing Good is Simple”, shares his stories and insights into developing data-driven solutions to ending extreme poverty, leading non-profit organizations through crisis, strategically working together with donors and influencers, and building a personal discipline for learning.

 

More than a decade ago in Zimbabwe, Chris met a starving child who was orphaned living in an abandoned gas station, and that helped launch the idea and spirit behind Help One Now, an organization that empowers families in developing countries through high-capacity local leaders with proven solutions to end extreme poverty.

 

Chris now dedicates his life to seeking justice by empowering leaders and organizing tribes to launch global movements that do good. Chris is a member of the Forbes Nonprofit Council and is a sought-after speaker at conferences including TedX, Plywood People, Ideation Conference, Together for Adoption, and The White House’s gathering of Innovators Doing Good.
