#73 Kirrily Graham - Dovetail: Facilitating Impactful Partnerships Between Charities and Small Businesses

In this episode of Products With Purpose, Eli spoke with Kirrily Graham Founder of Dovetail

For 18 years Kirrily was involved with the Christina Noble Children's Foundation as a volunteer, fundraiser, director, and in leadership roles

Kirrily brings her combined experience of working in hospitality, business development, training, and development as well as her work in the charity sector to her work now with Dovetail as we bring together the charity and business worlds.

Dovetail is all about building capacity in the amazing grass root charities that exist in Australia through empowering partnerships with small to medium size businesses that love to have a positive social impact.

Some of the highlights from this episode:

• How Kirrily’s journey led her to understand how charities usually operate, and to see common challenges and weaknesses
• How charities can learn from and be supported by entrepreneurs
• How Dovetail is facilitating powerful and impactful partnerships between charities and small businesses
• How small businesses can gain customer loyalty (and grow) by demonstrating social responsibility
• The role social enterprises are playing in upgrading the way we solve problems sustainably

Make sure to stay until the end to hear her book recommendation, and something forward-looking that she’s optimistic about right now!
