BRIGHT SPOTS

Bright Spots: Bite-Sized Stories of Hope and Progress

Two individuals are enjoying listening to music with headphones. The background features a diagonal split with orange and blue colors.

Even against a backdrop of uncertainty, our grantees are brimming with stories of hope and progress.

Bright Spots, a mini-series within Lemonada’s Good Things podcast, shines a light on our grantees making a real difference right now—and how their solutions can inspire change everywhere.  

Through candid interviews with grantee leaders and insights from those working on the ground to drive change in their communities, Bright Spots invites listeners to step inside the stories of organizations that, despite facing immense challenges, have found ways to achieve extraordinary results. From improving student literacy to mobilizing volunteers in times of crisis to eliminating millions in youth debt—their stories are both uplifting and instructive, offering practical insights into what is working and how their approaches can be adapted by others.  

In this collection of articles, we go beyond the podcast to dive deeper into each grantee’s unique path to success and reveal ways you can help drive change alongside them.
