In this powerful episode of North of Normal, Amanda McKeen sits down with Nanci Carney, North Country Director of Community Engagement for Granite United Way, to trace her journey from childhood volunteer to community connector, cancer survivor, and advocate for the unseen.
Nanci shares what it was like to lose her husband at 38, to lobby for access to life-saving treatments, and to witness both heartbreak and hope in the North Country every single day.
They talk about the power of proximity, the problem with 13,000 nonprofits in a small state, and the small wins—like a bag of oranges—that keep us going.
