About this episode
Welcome to weekly history dive, a feature for Patreon supporters. The rest of you out there, please enjoy the first 5 minutes in this SAMPLE.
In 1938 the March of Dimes was officially formed. Or at least named. 10 years earlier, President Roosevelt started efforts to protect children from polio. That mission has expanded to raise funds for all sort of healthcare applications, education, and advocacy. This week's dive into psychological history looks at the March of Dimes organization, its history, and the nature of charity & giving. AND why and how do we select a powerful name for a cause?
This is the Patron's only weekly Thistory lesson, glad to create and share it with all y'all!
