Meet Vik. The charity: water co-creator may be the queen of branding, but her other superpower may just be found in galvanizing community for good. And she's going to change everything about the way you think about monthly donors. And when you’ve built a movement of rabid fans who collectively infuse more than $20 million a year via this methodology, you’ve got the chops to preach. We're talking about the starving mindset so many are employing in the nonprofit sector and how to break out of it with this awesome mama, creative genius and simply a really good human.
