For the podcast this week I had the opportunity to talk with Katie Bunnell, co-founder and President of the Live Your Dream Foundation. The foundation awards scholarships to single mothers in Utah to help them complete their education so they can better provide for their families. Their scholarships can be used at any university, college, or technical school.

In this episode, Katie shares her own story of becoming a single mother and the perseverance it took for her to be able to finish her college degree. With the help of some of her family members, Katie then decided she wanted to start a foundation to help other single mothers be successful with their education journey. Along with the financial assistance they provide, 'Live Your Dream' has also cultivated a community that provides support and enrichment for single mothers and their families throughout Utah.

Listen to the podcast to learn more about this incredible non-profit and the good work they do!
