   068: Building Sustainability - Allison Karnes

   Allison Karnes returns in this episode to discuss the need for sustainability in an organization. She is the founder of WRAPS, which you can learn about in Episode 67 (https://www.buzzsprout.com/1462189/14395264). Because WRAPS gives away a lot its products to those in need, she chose to produce and sell other goods and run a cafe to create additional streams of revenue to run the ministry rather than allowing it to be solely dependent on donations.

   067: WRAPS For Girls - Allison Karnes

   Today you'll hear from Allison Karnes, the founder of WRAPS. She started this ministry that makes and gives away Washable, Reusable, Affordable Pads to girls in Ethiopia. This gives young girls the chance to continue their education rather than dropping out of school because of the embarrassment that can come from not having access to feminine hygiene products once they begin puberty.
