Karen Olson is the founder and CEO emeritus of Family Promise, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to helping homeless and low-income families. Her organization has trained and mobilized over one million volunteers over the past thirty years to provide services to homeless families. Olson has received many awards for her remarkable social service contributions, including the 1992 Annual Points of Light Award from President George H. W. Bush.

Karen is selfless, and compassionate, and determined, and inspirational, and if you haven't figured out by now,... My guest this week! ;-)
