[PODCAST] Volunteers as Voices: Turning Your Community into Nonprofit Ambassadors – Becca Segovia

Volunteers as Voices: Turning Your Community into Nonprofit Ambassadors

In this episode of the Nonprofit Hub Radio Podcast, host Meghan Speer welcomes back fan-favorite guest Becca Segovia, CEO of GCS Partners, for a deep dive into the “V” of the G.I.V.E. Framework—Volunteer—as a powerful strategy for turning supporters into ambassadors. Together, they explore how nonprofits can activate volunteers, donors, and supporters to lend not just their time or dollars, but their voices, sharing authentic stories that drive awareness, engagement, and giving. Becca unpacks practical ways to equip communities with messaging tools, embrace generational differences in advocacy, responsibly release control of the narrative, and leverage data showing the real financial impact of social sharing. The conversation offers actionable insights for nonprofits looking to grow retention, acquisition, and community impact by empowering their people to tell the story.
