Send a text

This episode of the Do Something More Podcast originally aired in December 2023. On it I’m joined by Katie Bunnell, co-founder and President of the Live Your Dream Foundation, a Utah-based nonprofit dedicated to empowering single mothers through education.

The Live Your Dream Foundation awards scholarships to single mothers across Utah, helping them complete college, university, or technical school programs so they can build stable careers and better provide for their families. But their support goes beyond financial assistance — they have created a strong, uplifting community that offers encouragement, connection, and enrichment for single mothers and their children.

In this episode, Katie shares her personal journey of becoming a single mother and the perseverance it took to finish her own college degree. She also shares how with the support of family members and a desire to give back, she founded Live Your Dream to help other single moms overcome financial and emotional barriers to higher education. She also highlights some of the ways her nonprofit has had to pivot to raise money and make the most of every donation they receive.

If you’re passionate about nonprofit work, supporting single mothers, education scholarships, community service, or helping families break cycles of hardship, this inspiring conversation will show how one woman’s experience turned into a mission that is changing lives throughout Utah.

Listen now to learn how education, community support, and volunteer-driven nonprofit leadership are helping single mothers live their dreams.
