Social Impact Heroes: Why & How Charyn Harris & Grace Ann Blake Are Helping To Change Our World

Have a clear understanding of the board and how they work. Is your board a fundraising board or a governing board? Do you have sub committees? We believe board members should be active participants. If they are not active, a recommendation should be made for them to sit on the advisory board.

As part of my series about “individuals and organizations making an important social impact”, I had the pleasure of interviewing Charyn Harris & Grace Ann Blake, Co-Executive Directors of My Good.

Charyn Harris began her career at PepsiCo, as assistant to Dr. H. Naylor Fitzhugh, who is credited with creating the concept of target marketing. She went on to pursue a career as a musician and most notably was the only female keyboardist to tour with the iconic Barry White. With over 20 years in the nonprofit sector. Harris gained recognition directing the Berklee City Music Network partner site in Los Angeles and facilitated over 40 scholarships for aspiring musicians to attend Berklee, which is also her alma mater.
