S2E2: The Capitalist | Learning the System (John Raskob)

Holy Donors

The man, the myth, the legend. Perhaps this phrase was originally coined after the life of John Raskob. We thankfully pick up and receive the answer to the question we were left with last episode, “can John save his relationship with the DuPont Company?” In this episode we follow John through his early career, the beginning of WWI, finding love in an unusual way and creating a family. With 13 children born within 15 years, how do John and Helena raise their children with a strong faith and business sense? And what will the Pope say? --- Recommended reading: "Everybody Ought to be Rich" by David Farber.

About Podcast

Sharing inspiring stories of radical generosity that have changed the world! Holy Donors examines Catholic philanthropists through the lens of their time in history. We ask the questions: Were they faithful? Were they humble? Were they radically generous? You will learn about some inspiring givers you had never heard of, some famous figures that you didn't know were Catholic, and even some well known Catholic figures that may or may not have been what they seemed. Were they faithful, humble, and generous? Were they holy donors? www.holydonors.com
