We are thrilled to announce the launch of our very first episode of The Good Pour Project! In this podcast, we dive into the world of good work in our community and beyond, highlighting the inspiring stories and impactful initiatives that make a difference.In our inaugural episode of A Good Pour, we had the pleasure of interviewing Katherine Louw, the Executive Director of the Carolyn Smith Foundation. Katherine shared her experiences and insights into the work of this grant making organization based in Sumner County, Tennessee. The foundation supports various sectors, including animals, arts and culture, education, environment, healthcare, human services, and military and veterans. Katherine discussed how she approaches good work through three essential categories: financial capital, relational and human capital, and intellectual capital. By focusing on these pillars, she is able to make a meaningful impact within the nonprofit sector.
Catherine also emphasized the importance of connecting leaders and nurturing relationships, as well as providing strategic guidance to maximize philanthropic efforts. During our conversation, Katherine shared a heartwarming example of good work in action.

The Carolyn Smith Foundation played a vital role in supporting this organization through a matching grant, enabling them to amplify their impact and bring hope to those in need. We hope that this first episode of A Good Pour inspires you as much as it did us.
