U.S. Vice President JD Vance was in Lucerne, Switzerland on Monday giving an update on negotiations with Iran. He said that ‘a lot of good progress' has been made and that a ‘very good foundation' has been set for a successful final deal. Vance said that four key points have been made, including establishing a mechanism for keeping the Hormuz Strait open, coordinating a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, an agreement on IAEA inspections, and a process for technical negotiations.British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced he is stepping down, less than two years after he led the Labour Party to a landslide election victory. Starmer says the nomination process will begin on July 9th and a new leader will be chosen before Parliament returns in September. Andy Burnham is considered the frontrunner to replace Starmer, after recently winning a Parliament seat in a special election that boosted his standing within the party.Lawmakers are heading back to Washington, D.C. on Monday, to tackle issues like election integrity, affordable housing, and leadership in the intelligence community. The affordable housing bill, is backed by both Democrats and Republicans, and is expected to pass the House this week, after passing the Senate last week.

In this SHORT episode of Purposely, we're back with NedWills, on an unexpected place his community engagement journey began, and what it taught him about ethics, incentives, and connecting elite sport to grassroots impact. Ned's eyes were first opened to community work through anunlikely route: working in the oil industry in the early 2000s. Large infrastructure projects in unstable parts of the world meant companies had to invest heavily before seeing any return, which made getting community relationsright a genuine commercial priority, not just good PR. That put Ned at an unusual intersection of sponsorship and community engagement early in his career. What struck him most was the people. Despite working for anindustry that's easy to criticise from the outside, he found many of his colleagues to be genuinely community-minded, regularly navigating real ethical dilemmas with care. There was a constant tension between commercial pressure todeliver shareholder returns and a genuine desire to make sure the impact on local communities was a positive one. That early exposure to ethical complexity has stayed withNed throughout his career, and it shows up clearly in his work today at Laureus Sport for Good. The Laureus World Sports Awards bring the glitz, but the real work happens at the other end of the scale entirely: taking the inspiration andpassion the world feels watching athletes like Lewis Hamilton, Novak Djokovic and Usain Bolt, and channelling it into young people navigating war, violence, gang crime, and lack of access to education and healthcare. The question Nedkeeps coming back to is how sport's emotional power can be harnessed to help young people change their own lives, and their communities, for the better. This episode of Purposely is brought to you by Benevity and Trust Investments.Key Themes

What if philanthropy wasn't just about writing checks - but about building systems that actually work?In this episode of A Modern Nonprofit Podcast, host Tosha Anderson sits down with Ed Mitzen, Co-Founder of the Business for Good Foundation, to talk about rethinking traditional philanthropy through a business lens.After selling his for-profit company, Ed and his wife chose a hands-on approach to giving - investing time, talent, and capital into workforce development, housing, entrepreneurship, and underserved communities. Together, they explore how nonprofits, government, and the private sector can collaborate more effectively to create long-term economic mobility instead of short-term fixes.You'll hear real examples of:Using entrepreneurship to reduce reliance on nonprofit servicesPartnering with government to get funding out fasterWhy nonprofit boards need business expertiseHow to engage donors and business leaders beyond writing checksWhat nonprofits should focus on as funding gets tighterIf you're a nonprofit leader, funder, or board member navigating uncertainty and looking for smarter, more sustainable ways to drive impact - this episode is for you.Connect with Ed Mitzen

In this episode of Celebrate Your Story , I sit down with Ed Mitzen, founder and CEO of FingerPaint Group and Business for Good Foundation for a conversation about what it takes to build a company that lasts. Ed walked away from a stable career at 30, with young children at home and no guarantees ahead. He started his business in a basement, pushed through years of uncertainty, burnout, and personal loss, and ultimately built FingerPaint into an 800-employee company serving some of the largest healthcare organizations in the country. Along the way, he learned lessons many entrepreneurs discover the hard way — that the work never truly shuts off and that success often comes at a personal cost. We talk about the parts of entrepreneurship people don't always share: starting over after divorce, carrying the weight of payroll and responsibility, and finding perspective after years of effort. Ed also shares how advances in AI are reshaping healthcare and the workforce, and why those changes have made questions of access, opportunity, and dignity even more urgent. That urgency led Ed and his wife to create the Business for Good Foundation, using their business skills and resources to invest in workforce development, housing, and entrepreneurship in underserved communities. It's a reminder that while business can be demanding, it can also be a powerful tool for lifting others. What do you think? Share your thoughts and stories with me here.

Sermon by Pastor Tom,"The Good Foundation"

In this NBN episode, NBN host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Siphiwe Gloria Ndlovu about her phenomenal novel, The Creation of Half-Broken People. (House of Anansi Press, 2025). Stupendous African Gothic, by the winner of Yale University's Windham–Campbell Prize Showcasing African Gothic at its finest, The Creation of Half-Broken People is the extraordinary tale of a nameless woman plagued by visions. She works for the Good Foundation and its museum filled with artifacts from the family's exploits in Africa, the Good family members all being descendants of Captain John Good, of King Solomon's Mines fame.Our heroine is happy with her association with the Good family, until one day she comes across a group of protestors outside the museum. Instigating the group is an ancient woman, who our heroine knows is not real. She knows too that the secrets of her past have returned. After this encounter, the nameless woman finds herself living first in an attic and then in a haunted castle, her life anything but normal as her own intangible inheritance unfolds through the women who inhabit her visions. With a knowing nod to classics of the Gothic genre, Siphiwe Gloria Ndlovu weaves the threads of a complex colonial history into the present through people “half-broken” by the stigmas of race and mental illness, all the while balancing the humanity of her characters against the cruelty of empire in a hypnotic, haunting account of love and magic. SIPHIWE GLORIA NDLOVU is a Zimbabwean writer, scholar, and filmmaker. She is a 2022 recipient of the Windham–Campbell Prize for Fiction. Her debut novel, The Theory of Flight, won the Sunday Times Barry Ronge Fiction Prize in 2019. Her second and third novels, The History of Man and The Quality of Mercy, were shortlisted for the Sunday Times Fiction Prize. After almost two decades of living in North America, Ndlovu has returned home to Bulawayo, the City of Kings. Learn more about your ad choices.

A talk by Thanissaro Bhikkhu entitled "A Good Foundation"

On today's podcast, Arizona Real Estate Mogul and Change Agent Tim McBride shares his personal journey of finding a bigger purpose beyond real estate, leaving a legacy of service. BACK STORY Originally from Vancouver, Canada, Tim McBride pursued a career in professional sports and entertainment upon earning undergraduate and graduate degrees in the field. After his sports-tech company plateaued, he found himself back in Arizona and pivoted into what has been a fruitful six-year career in real estate. Now residing in the Scottsdale area, McBride works with residential clients in Scottsdale and nearby locales. He strives to be intentional in his interactions and build real relationships with his clientele. Describing his approach as relationship-driven and impact-focused, he challenges himself daily to elevate his standard of service to clients and community. With a passion for real estate and serving his community, Tim began The Change Agent Golf Classic, a tournament benefiting The Driven Project, a nonprofit dedicated to bringing joy and strength to children battling critical illnesses.  Recently established in Scottsdale by founder Kevin Gordon, The Driven Project provides these young warriors with unforgettable “supercare therapy” experiences, giving them a chance to ride in exotic cars and escape the challenges they face - even if it's just for the day.  This uplifting experience offers a profound sense of hope, strength, and inspiration for these children and their families during an incredibly challenging time.   In addition to The Change Agent Golf Classic, Tim also heads the Homes for Good Foundation, a purpose driven movement of independent real estate professionals designed to tell a much bigger story beyond the transaction and be a catalyst for inspiration, impact and the transformation in our neighborhoods and communities. Where every real estate transaction means immediate local impact.    Website: https://timmcbriderealestate.com/ https://homesforgoodfoundation.org/ https://cbo.io/bidapp/index.php?slug=changeagent     Instagram: @timmcbride_changeagent   SUBSCRIBE TO ICONIC HOUR If you enjoyed today's podcast, I'd be so appreciative if you'd take two minutes to subscribe, rate and review ICONIC HOUR.

The Be Good Foundation was founded by Rebecca Rusch who among many things is an ultra endurance athlete, adventure cyclist, a world champion multiple times and the star in a film called Blood Road. At the Be Good Foundation, the bike is the center of their work as a catalyst for healing, empowerment, and evolution. They provide grant support to a number of organizations that use the bike in just this fashion. One such recipient is today's guest, Megan LaBeth. Megan is currently on an epic bikepacking adventure, riding from New York City to a cycling event in Idaho put on by Rebecca Rusch called Rebecca's Private Idaho. Megan has a mantra, "One Rotation at a Time," that to her is a reminder of the power of persistence, the importance of mental health, and the healing nature of cycling. She is raising money for the Be Good Foundation along the way so that there can be future Be Good Foundation scholarship recipients. She is going to tell us about her adventure and experiences as a solo traveler making her way to Idaho.

In this episode, we navigate the ever evolving landscape of messaging app dynamics, examining the challenges and opportunities in striking the right balance between preserving user privacy, ensuring robust security measures, and maintaining accountability in an ever changing digital landscape.  Today's guest is Kurt Long. Kurt is an entrepreneur with over 25 years of experience in starting, growing, and building Information Security and Privacy businesses. Kurt is the Executive Director of The Long Family Force for Good Foundation which focuses on supporting not-for-profits dedicated to improving the mental health of families and children. Kurt is also the Co-Founder and CEO of BUNKR. Show Notes: [1:09] - Kurt shares his background and what he does through The Long Family Force for Good Foundation and BUNKR. [5:01] - He found himself interested in technology and the idea of doing something bigger than himself with a team. [9:26] - Currently, Kurt's work is directed to messaging apps. [13:22] - In the early days of messaging, there was an inherent trust. We didn't think about the bad guys yet. [15:57] - Communication platforms were never intended to secure communication. [17:31] - Most communication apps now do begin with good intent. Kurt describes WhatsApp as an example until it was purchased by Facebook. [19:50] - We want information and access, but we want safety, too. [21:38] - We have to put trust in someone to strike a balance. [23:41] - The Federal Trade Commission has announced apps that don't support legal due process and implemented a fine for use of them. [25:56] - Kurt shares a true story that is a great example of inside trade problems in messaging apps. [28:28] - Using secret messaging apps or apps that feature disappearing messages are hard to track. You could be affiliated with someone doing something illegal. [30:29] - Privacy and security do help us retain rights we have. [32:35] - Messaging issues also impact the medical industry. [34:07] - Some countries have legislation that ban secret messaging apps, but they aren't really being enforced. [36:25] - BUNKR has consumers and public usage in 32 countries worldwide and is popular with families. [37:52] - When companies have more control over their app, there is less criminality involved. [40:02] - This service is invitation based. You cannot receive random messages from anyone you do not invite. [41:55] - “The entire planet deserves to conduct their affairs with dignity at bank level security.” [44:29] - Kurt leans towards following United States laws and legal action, but also has a large legal team to help guide through unusual situations.
