Do Something More
This is a service-oriented podcast where we highlight the helpers who inspire us all to do something more.
We 'highlight the helpers' and tell the inspiring stories of others (individuals, organizations, and nonprofits) who have found unique ways to give back to their communities. And we inspire listeners to 'do something more' with simple ideas on how you can serve, volunteer and make a difference.
Weekly interview and solo episodes hosted by Melissa Draper.
