Philanthropy unites Broadway stars like Lin-Manuel Miranda, Gloria Estefan, Judith Light, and more. The Broadway Gives Back Podcast spotlights Broadway actors, shows, and organizations in their pursuit of social impact and doing good. Our talented guests will share stories about their favorite charities, how they got involved, and the people and causes who have benefited from these philanthropic efforts. From stars to stagehands, cast members to front of house, and causes large and small, we will discuss why philanthropy is so vital and inspiring. Hosted by former head of marketing for the Tony Awards and The Broadway League, and CCO for the Charity Network, Jan Svendsen, this feel-good podcast will also discuss ways you can do good through education and taking action to make the world a better place.Part of the Broadway Podcast Network.

episode 5: Earth Month Series - Laura Bell Bundy
Our guest in this episode is a true activist. Laura Bell Bundy is also an actress, a recording artist, a singer/songwriter, a director, a producer, and a podcaster. Broadway fans will know her as Tina in Ruthless, Amber in Hairspray, Elle Woods in Legally Blonde, where she was nominated for a Tony Award, and she played Glinda in Wicked. She started her own foundation called Women of Tomorrow, which works to raise the social consciousness by bringing awareness to women’s issues through art, education and community.
As part of the Broadway Gives Back podcast's Earth Month series, “United Nations Global Goals” we are talking about tackling the world’s “to do” list to make our planet a better place. I’m joined by my Earth Month co-host Tony Nominee, Anika Larsen. We decided to work together on this series and bring in guests to talk about the ways in which we all can make small changes for the greater good. Join us as Laura talks about Global Goal #5, Gender Equality.
