Unleashing the Power of Eating, Learning, and Playing: Join CEO Chris Helfrich as he champions the impactful mission of Eat.Learn.Play Foundation to transform underserved communities through its three pillars, challenging the stigmas of charity and inspiring lasting change.

My special guest is Chris Helfrich

Meet Chris Helfrich, the force behind the Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation. Not a stranger to charitable work, Chris has broadened his experience, starting from his endeavors with the UN Foundation Against Malaria to leading the Starlight Children's Foundation. Now, partnering with Ayesha and Steph Curry, Chris is transforming thousands of lives in Oakland through the power of Eat Learn Play. Using this powerful trifecta, Chris and his team advocate for children's access to nutritious food, quality education, and sports activities. His work goes beyond charity; it's about offering dignity, a proud sense of community, and a bright future for those in need.

This bus totally flips receiving charity on its head, where normally there can be real stigma attached to receiving food from a food bank, right? And instead, what we have with the Eat and Play bus is like, kids just flocking to the bus to receive these resources. - Chris Helfrich

Chris Helfrich, CEO of the Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation, was interviewed on the A World of Difference podcast by host Lori Adams-Brown. The conversation centered around the foundation's mission and impact in Oakland, California. Helfrich discussed the three pillars of the foundation: eating, learning, and playing, and emphasized their importance in creating a happy and successful childhood. He shared how the foundation focuses on childhood literacy, with a specific emphasis on third-grade reading levels. Helfrich also highlighted the foundation's commitment to impact over legacy, as well as their partnership with the Curry family. Overall, the episode serves as an inspiring discussion on the work being done by the Eat Learn Play Foundation and the importance of community involvement in making a difference.

In this episode, you will be able to:

  • Dive into the transformative ethos of the Eat Learn Play Foundation and its initiatives in Oakland.
  • Learn about the concentrated focus the foundation has on the intellectual growth of children.
  • Appreciate the role of unstructured play and physical health in the holistic development of children.
  • Unravel opportunities to participate and make a difference with the foundation's community initiatives.
  • Grasp how local participation is a major asset in addressing and resolving social challenges.

Pivotal Role of Eat Learn Play Foundation

Eat Learn Play Foundation, co-founded by Chris Helfrich, Stephen Curry and his wife author and celebrity chef Ayesha, plays a significant role in uplifting the community in Oakland, California. With a stellar record of delivering 25 million meals, investing in literacy programs, and serving numerous young individuals, they create an impactful difference. Their strategy involves forming robust relationships with influential partners, and operating innovative programs like the mobile bookstore and market bus, fulfilling their mission to nourish, educate, and entertain.

The resources mentioned in this episode are:

  • Visit the Eat Learn Play Foundation website to learn more about their mission and the work they do in Oakland.
  • Support the Eat Learn Play Foundation by making a donation to help provide meals, books, and resources to youth in need.
  • Follow Eat Learn Play on social media to stay updated on their latest initiatives and events.
  • Volunteer your time with Eat Learn Play to make a hands-on impact in the Oakland community.
  • Purchase merchandise from the Eat Learn Play Foundation to support their programs and show your support.

  • Share the story of Eat Learn Play with your friends, family, and network to help raise awareness about their work and inspire others to get involved.
  • Stay tuned for the big exciting announcement from Eat Learn Play by following their social media channels and subscribing to their newsletter.

The opportunity to create something with two of the all-time great people in the Curries and leverage their networks, their voices, their platforms, and their passions to do good, it was a dream come true. - Chris Helfrich

In light of recent events with elder boards making decisions on allegations of abuse by pastors, a rebroadcast on one of our more popular and requested guests, Dr. Chuck DeGroat, seemed timely. Dr. Chuck DeGroat is Professor of Counseling and Christian Spirituality and Interim D.Min. Director at Western Theological Seminary and faculty member for the Soul Care Institute.

He is an author, speaker, consultant, and therapist.

He is a Minister of Word and Sacrament in the Reformed Church in America. He pastored in Orlando and San Francisco before transitioning to training and forming pastors. His experience includes training clergy in issues of abuse and trauma, pastor and planter assessments, church consultations, and investigations of abuse among pastors and within congregations. He has been featured on The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill podcast by Mike Cosper at Christianity Today in regards to the abuse of staff by pastor Marc Driscoll.

Chuck has been married to Sara for 27 years, and has two adult daughters.

He is the author of:

  1. When Narcissism Comes to Church: Healing Your Community from Emotional and Spiritual Abuse
  2. Leaving Egypt: Finding God in Wilderness Places
  3. Wholeheartedness: Busyness, Exhaustion and Healing the Divided Self,
  4. Toughest People to Love: How to Understand, Lead, and Love the Difficult People in Your Life -- Including Yourself.

Follow Dr. DeGroat's work on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter

*Several books are mentioned in this podcast that help in learning to discern the patterns of pastors who bully, intimidate and coerce their staff when it is not easy to see from the outside and is not something everyone on staff experiences.

(If you are on a church elder board, or a church hiring committee, I highly recommend these books):

  1. A Church Called TOV: Forming a Goodness Culture That Resists Abuses of Power and Promotes Healing by Dr. Scot McKnight and Laura Barringer
  2. Something's Not Right: Decoding the Hidden Tactics of Abuse and Freeing Yourself From Its Power by Wade Mullen
  3. Redeeming Power: Understanding Authority and Abuse in the Church by Dr. Diane Langberg

You can find Gill creating content on Instagram, YouTube, and wherever you listen to podcasts.

He is the founder of the Trinity Forum, a prominent social critic, and a frequent speaker who has addressed audiences worldwide.

Born in China to missionary parents, he is the great-great-great-grandson of Arthur Guinness, the Dublin brewer. After witnessing the climax of the Chinese revolution in 1949, he was expelled with many other foreigners in 1951 and returned to England where he was educated and served as a freelance reporter with the BBC. Since coming to the U.S. in 1984, he has been a guest scholar at the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Studies and a visiting fellow at the Brookings Institution. He was the lead drafter of the Williamsburg Charter, celebrating the First Amendment, and has also been senior fellow at the EastWest Institute in New York, where he drafted the Charter for Religious Freedom.
