We believe that you can make an impact- in your career, in your relationships, and with your actions. We share sustainable and equitable solutions to humanitarian issues to help you do good. // On the full-length podcast, we talk with activists and leaders about how they create sustainable and equitable impact with new episodes every Wednesday morning. On Handful, our team tells you what we know about humanitarian issues in a condensed format-- each episode is shorter than a song, but long enough that you'll learn something new. New episodes come out sporadically. // We're talking about everything social impact and humanitarian issues, from the environment to education to poverty, with a focus on sustainability and equity.
