Join us at the intersection of music and charitable giving for an intimate conversation with your favorite philanthropic singer-songwriters. We share a deeper look at the person behind the music, what moves them to take action, and opportunities for you to get involved too!
We listen to their music, hear their words and watch them own the stage and hone their craft. But, what do they value and stand for? Many singer-songwriters generously donate their time, talent, and money to make the world a better place.
Through our podcast, we'll connect you with these artists who advocate for important causes, in order to shine a light on their goodwill and serve as a conduit for you to learn about a variety of charities.
– Bono
"Music can change the world because it can change people"
I’m Jennifer - music lover, concert go-er, charitable event fanatic, and the host of the Compassionate Measures Podcast.
I love live music and am even more excited when the music raises awareness or supports a social issue.
I have served as a school administrator (substance abuse/violence prevention), a community organizer (HIV/AIDS, gun violence), and the director of a US-based nonprofit that supported African families. My goal for the podcast is to build an online community through a shared love for the singer-songwriter genre, to promote the philanthropic efforts of these musicians, and inspire listeners like you to make their own contributions to deserving organizations that impact the world.
– Mark Goodman
"Music continues to unite people. Music continues to alert people."
Compassionate Measures is a twenty-five minute intimate interview with philanthropic singer-songwriters. We give you the rare opportunity to get an inside look at the values and beliefs of these amazing artists... those who have made a commitment to support select causes and to help others by giving back.
You will leave each episode with a deeper understanding about our guest musician, the causes they choose to support and why, as well as how you, too, can contribute to charitable projects that leave a lasting impact on this world.
Compassionate Measures is committed to creating change through awareness (our podcast) and action. A small donation will be made to each guest’s charity of choice.
