Facing a nonprofit storytelling content dilemma?

Sharing powerful stories to illustrate mission impact can present tricky ethical decision-making for nonprofits. In this episode, we dive into finding the delicate balance between impact and integrity that allows us to tell stories that uplift rather than exploit while inspiring action from donors.

Join Cara and Carly Euler, Marketing Manager @memoryfox , for 20 minutes of sound, easy-to-implement advice and best practice using the science of storytelling to ensure ethical, inclusive, and respectful storytelling is central to your organization.

Producing ethical nonprofit stories is all about connecting with your community and building on the trust relationship you have created with them. By leveraging the science of storytelling, you can transform your impact narrative while maintaining integrity and respect for the people you serve, empowering their voices through inclusivity. Prioritizing ethical storytelling safeguards your organization’s reputation and shows you care about making a positive impact. It’s not just about the community—it’s about your organization’s integrity.

We have a wide range of resources to support you in your ethical storytelling journey. Memory Fox has recently released a report that digs deep into how to promote equity and inclusion through storytelling, you can download it here:
