On a special Christmas edition of the podcast, we are getting a behind the scenes look at how an independent artist raises funds to support their mission.
Today we’re talking with Steve Bell. Steve is a singer-songwriter, author, and speaker. He has been sharing his music and message for almost 30 years across Canada, the US and beyond.
Steve has a two-sided business model. He tours and sells music — but he also raises funds and relies on philanthropy. Over the years, Steve has built a broad base of donors by giving people a chance to support his mission in a meaningful way.
This is one of the more insightful fundraising chats I’ve had in a long time. We get into the philosophy and mindset of fundraising: giving someone an opportunity to be a part of, and sharing in, the work we do.
Today we’ll cover:
Resources mentioned:
A Spirituality of Fundraising by Henri Nouwen
“A Hunkered Down Christmas” by Steve Bell
7-book series “Pilgrim Year” by Steve Bell
Steve Bell’s newest release “Wouldn’t You Love to Know”
