Dr. Aurelian Crăiuțu is Professor in the Department of Political Science at Indiana University, Bloomington, and Adjunct Professor in the Lilly Family School of Philanthropic Studies at IUPUI, Indianapolis. He is also affiliated with the Russian and East European Institute, the Institute for West European Studies, and the Ostrom Workshop. Crăiuțu has written extensively about the concept of political moderation and has argued that moderation is the strongest, most intellectually honest, and most radical political position in times of polarization. Rector's Cupboard co-host, Todd Wiebe, wrote an article for Church For Vancouver, in April 2024 reflecting on Crăiuțu's latest work, Why Not Moderation?, in relation to Evangelical culture. Asking questions such as; What are the shadow sides of the calls for “radical commitment” in Evangelical faith? How might religious moderation by the strongest type of commitment? After publication of that piece, Aurelian Crăiuțu reached out to Todd and asked for a conversation on religious moderation and how it might relate to political moderation. This episode is that conversation. You may have grown up in a religious culture that demanded or rewarded a kind of fully-sold-out faith. While the appeals of this kind of neither-hot-nor-cold understanding of faith are evident, the dangers and weaknesses are often overlooked. If sold out faith means never questioning belief or leadership, than it is weak, not strong. If sold out faith means seeing people who don't believe what you believe as obviously misguided or even evil, than it is weak, not strong. Political moderation moves us towards genuine consideration of the other. Christian faith, at its hopeful best, does the same. The concept of the Incarnation is the heart of God moving towards humanity. Faith that is truly strong (moderate) recognizes this call. If you'd like to read more about moderation, you can find links to Todd original article and Dr. Crăiuțu's book above. If you're really keen about even more writing about moderation, you can also check out Todd's other article about it, written earlier this year, in Evangelically Departed.

The discussion begins by reflecting on the Fundraising School's impactful journey over the past half-century. Dr. Pasic emphasizes the importance of this milestone, noting the School's significant contributions to the field and the global reach of its alumni, who consistently report increased fundraising success due to their education. Dr. Pasic highlights the symbiotic relationship between higher education and professional development. He recalls how the School's founder, Henry Rosso, integrated academic research into the curriculum to ensure a robust foundation for practical fundraising skills. This model, unique to the Fundraising School, allows for continuous innovation and adaptation in the field. Dr. Pasic points out that having academic and professional development programs under one roof enables immediate collaboration and synergy, enhancing the relevance and application of their research. As the conversation unfolds, Bill and Dr. Pasic discuss the evolution of fundraising as a global profession.

Including:Is “philanthropy” a helpful word in a global context?If not, why not: do people not understand it, or do they understand it, but with particular connotations?If we use terms such as ”generosity” instead, is there still a use for “philanthropy” to denote a specific subset of that activity? (And if so, what subset?) Is there any danger that if we broaden our definitions of generosity too far in our desire to make them more universal, they will become meaningless? Do we need a “grand theory” of global generosity? What are the obvious gaps, biases and limitations in our current knowledge about generosity at a global level?Is it useful to distinguish between philanthropic giving based on traditions of charity/altruism and other forms of giving grounded in traditions of mutualism/reciprocity? Or should we blur these distinctions within a wider conception of generosity?How important is it to “decolonize philanthropy research” as well as expanding our definitions of generosity?Is the role of philanthropy academics simply to observe and analyse giving and generosity, or to encourage it?Are current measures of global generosity useful? If not, why not?Apart from the challenges of finding appropriate definitions, are there other barriers to measuring generosity at a global level?Are we in the midst of a "generosity crisis", or is the apparent decline in giving in places like the US, the UK and the Netherlands merely a reflection of the fact that the way we measure generosity has failed to evolve in step with how people actually choose to give?Should the policy mechanisms we currently use to encourage and support philanthropic giving (e.g. tax reliefs) be adapted to encompass a broader range of activities that fit within an expanded definition of generosity?Related linksPamala's personal websiteThe call for contributors to the forthcoming volume on  “Philanthropy: Key debates and contending perspectives”, edited by Pamala and Femida HandyPamala's Voluntas article on  "The Global Study of Philanthropic Behavior". Pamala's article for HistPhil, "An inclusive study of global philanthropy: how can we overcome definitional, cultural and geographical boundaries?" 2022's "Philanthropy in a Different Perspective: Voices from Ethiopia, Nigeria and Serbia", a volume edited by Pamala & Femida Handy.Rhod's WPM article asking "Is the way that we talk about philanthropy and civil society holding us back?"Rhod's WPM article "Why Are We So Bad at Measuring Giving and Why Does It Matter?"

The conversation kicks off with reflections on an article from The Atlantic pondering the future of foreign language education in light of AI advancements. The Whole Whale team acknowledges the incredible potential AI has for bridging language barriers, particularly in the context of nonprofits that serve communities with English as a second language. They explore the possibilities of using AI to increase accessibility to services and information, while also considering the cultural nuances and emotional aspects that AI may not fully capture. George and Nick transition to discussing a Google survey revealing that while nonprofits recognize AI's transformative potential for marketing, many lack familiarity and in-house education on the technology. Despite the challenges, they underscore the importance of AI in increasing nonprofit employee productivity and the need for further education in the sector. In a positive turn, the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at Indiana University forecasts a rise in nonprofit giving over the next two years, attributing this growth to factors such as personal income, net worth, and stock market performance. George and Nick express cautious optimism, emphasizing the importance of such forecasts in boosting sector morale. The duo also touches on Canada's nonprofit sector, which contributes a significant 8.2 percent to the country's GDP, highlighting the sector's role in the economy and society. They note the high percentage of women on nonprofit boards and the reliance on individual donations, comparing sector contributions between Canada and the U.S. The episode concludes with a feel-good story about a local nonprofit in Milwaukee delivering 4,500 meals to seniors during Easter, showcasing the spirit of volunteerism and community support in the nonprofit world. George and Nick's discussion paints a picture of a sector that is both excited and cautious about the rapid advancements in AI, aware of the potential benefits and the need for education and cultural sensitivity. As technology continues to evolve, nonprofits are encouraged to embrace AI tools while staying true to their missions and the communities they serve.

The Global Philanthropy Tracker aims to understand cross-border philanthropic outflows from 47 countries, covering various stages of economic development. Unlike traditional measures like official development aid, the Global Philanthropy Tracker compares philanthropic giving to other major financial resource flows, highlighting the increasing role of private philanthropy in addressing global societal issues. Coco explains that the Global Philanthropy Tracker's significance lies in its ability to quantify the impact of philanthropy on global development, showcasing its growth over the past decades. Despite challenges such as limited data availability, the research team's collaboration with international partners and thorough data collection methods ensure a holistic picture of cross-border giving. The podcast emphasizes the importance of understanding philanthropy's role alongside government aid, particularly in the face of crises like the COVID-19 pandemic, where philanthropy has shown resilience. Moreover, the podcast discusses the implications of the Global Philanthropy Tracker findings for fundraisers and policymakers. Fundraisers can leverage the report to demonstrate the importance of supporting local initiatives and effective communication with funders. Meanwhile, policymakers can use the Global Philanthropy Tracker to understand the collaborative nature of global philanthropy and design policies to improve the environment for cross-border giving. Coco also calls for contributions from listeners to enhance future iterations of the report, underscoring the ongoing need for data to further understand and support cross-border philanthropy.

One of the first crowdfunders was an 1885 appeal to pay for the base of the Statue of Liberty, resulting in thousands of donations, some just mere pennies. Today, donors can help pay for disaster relief, medical treatments, classroom supplies, and more with a click of a button. But are these donations going to those who need the most help?

The discussion centers on the dynamic relationship between faith and philanthropy. The Lake Institute's primary focus is to explore how faith commitments and values inform charitable giving and how these patterns of giving shape both faith communities and broader societal actions. Elizabeth explains the Lake Institute conducts research, supports other organizations in their research efforts, and offers educational programs aimed at helping leaders engage their constituents in faithful giving and generosity. They recognize the evolving nature of faith and giving, with many religious institutions rethinking how they utilize their resources, including property and endowments. To address this, they have launched the "Story Shelf," an online resource library containing stories of faith communities reimagining their resources, forging new partnerships, and engaging in creative acts of generosity. These stories serve as inspirational tools for religious leaders to spark imagination and foster discussions on how they can align their resources with their values. The podcast also touches on various stories available on the Story Shelf, such as a Lutheran congregation in Washington, D.C., partnering with a Jewish congregation to share their space and an Episcopal Church in Cincinnati using part of its endowment to support local social entrepreneurs. These real-life examples showcase how faith communities are adapting to changing circumstances and aligning their resources with their values.

Professor, political theorist, and author, Aurelian Craiutu, who has been researching the elusive virtue of moderation for over a decade sits down with Adam to discuss the complexities, richness, and virtue of our very favorite approach to politics.Despite being a complex virtue with a rich tradition and unexplored radical sides, Moderation is often presented as a simple virtue for lukewarm and indecisive minds searching for a fuzzy center between the extremes. Not surprisingly, politicians generally haven't been willing to be labelled 'moderates'. But if we making our way through much of the group think and kool-aid drenched messaging coming from each of the parties will reveal more moderates in this country than we may think.Moderation is a form of courage that requires swimming against the current and assuming important risks.  *We see you Ms. Cheney and Mr Kinzinger #fella Moderates do not have a fixed political truth; they prefer the risk of appearing politically schizoid to becoming fanatic believers in a single dogma. They understand that aligning themselves with the Left or with the Right is often, in the words of Spanish philosopher Ortega y Gasset (1883-1955),  “only one of the numberless ways open to man of being an imbecile: both are forms of moral hemiplegia.”Aurelian Craiutu (Ph.D. Princeton, 1999) is Professor in the Department of Political Science at Indiana University, Bloomington, and Adjunct Professor in the American Studies Program and the Lilly Family School of Philanthropic Studies at IUPUI, Indianapolis. Craiutu's research interests include French political and social thought (Montesquieu, Tocqueville, Constant, Madame de Staël, Guizot, Aron), political ideologies (liberalism, conservatism), comparative political theory and democratic consolidation (mostly Central and Eastern Europe). He is the author and editor of several books on modern political thought including the marvelous and thought provoking title coming out this August Why Not Moderation?

Elizabeth Tanya Masiyiwa and Neera Nundy join host Maysa Jalbout in The Impact Room to discuss gender equality and what philanthropy can do to advance its progress.The Sustainable Development Goals were launched in 2015 to eliminate extreme poverty and support sustainable and resilient development. But eight years and a global pandemic later, many of the SDGs are hanging in the balance, none more so than goal number 5, with its target of gender equality.  On this, progress hasn't just stalled, it has reversed, and according to the UN, it could take another 300 years to achieve gender equality.In this episode of The Impact Room, Maysa examines what role philanthropy is - and / or should be - playing to accelerate progress towards SDG5.  According a  Lilly Family School of Philanthropy study, just 1.9% of US charitable donations go to women and girls, this is despite the emergence of a new movement of so-called gender-lens philanthropy spearheaded by donors such as MacKenzie Scott and Melinda French Gates, through initiatives like Pivotal Ventures and Co-Impact.What does applying a gender lens mean for philanthropy? How are funders changing how they give and what do organisations need to do differently? A philanthropist and social entrepreneur, Elizabeth Tanya Masiyiwa is the executive director of her family's Higherlife Foundation, the CEO of Delta Philanthropies in the UK, and the founder of ed-tech startup, Akello.Seasoned nonprofit leader, Neera Nundy quit her Wall Street job to co-found Dasra, which has grown to become India's leading philanthropy platform.They discuss with Maysa why gendered philanthropy matters, explain the importance of funding systems change, and share examples of initiatives and funders who are starting to make a real difference on the ground.  You can read full text of the remarks by Antonio Guturres' at the 2023 Commission on the Status of Women here and for more of Melinda French Gates's interview with The Economist, click here.The Impact Room is brought to you by Philanthropy Age and Maysa Jalbout.

In this episode we discuss the links between religion, faith and giving with David P.

Including:How important a part does faith play in motivating and shaping approaches to giving in the modern world?What role has it played historically?When it comes to faith as a factor in philanthropy, what is most important:Observance of specific religious requirements to give (e.g. tithing, Tzedakah, Zakat)?Broader religious teachings on ethics & responsibility?Attendance at places of worship?A sense of shared religious identity?How do religious teachings on the nature of poverty and justice affect the likelihood of their followers giving and the ways in which they give?Are we seeing a decline in faith in places like the UK and the US, or simply a shift away from organised, collective religion to more informal, individual spirituality? What impact might this have on giving?Are places of worship important in maintaining cultures of giving?To what extent is this because of their religious nature and to what extent is it simply because they are community buildings that bring people together, or act as a location for grassroots/informal activity?At a time when secular community spaces are becoming fewer, do places of worship have an increasingly important role to play as community anchors? Are they  embracing this role, and how?How much of the giving that goes towards religion in the US is for the maintenance of religious institutions themselves, and how much gets passed on into wider charitable activities?What role has faith (especially missionary faith) played in shaping the field of international development and humanitarian aid?Does faith still play an important role today? (E.g. given that quite a few major INGOs have religious roots, and are ostensibly still religious orgs)Does the academic study of philanthropy and civil society need to do more in terms of taking into account the role of faith groups?What challenges does this pose?

Walker's giving is distinct from many other major historical philanthropists in being grounded in traditions of mutual aid rather than charity- how did this shape her approach, and what could we learn from this today?Civil RightsHow important a focus for Madam C.

A woman builds a business empire and then goes on to give away millions of dollars to charity. It's not an unusual story, at least not today -- but if the woman was an African-American during the Jim Crow era? Madam C.J. Walker is considered America's first self-made, female millionaire. We'll learn more about her in today's episode from Tyrone McKinley Freeman, the author of Madam C.J. Walker's Gospel of Giving: Black Women's Philanthropy during Jim Crow. Freeman is an associate professor of philanthropic studies and director of undergraduate programs at the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. He's also among nine winners of the 2022 Dan David Prize, which recognizes “outstanding scholarship that illuminates the past and seeks to anchor public discourse in a deeper understanding of history.” Established in 2001 by the late entrepreneur and philanthropist Dan David, the prize is endowed by the Dan David Foundation and headquartered at Tel Aviv University. Winners will be honored at a ceremony in May. Each winner will receive $300,000 to recognize their achievements to date and support future work. In this episode, Freeman provides some history and perspective on African-American charitable giving and practices, how they shape today's giving, and what fundraisers and charity executives can learn from that. "I grew up in the Black church, which is a very strong and historically important philanthropic institution, it was all around me," Freeman said. "I grew up in it but that word philanthropy wasn't used. It was just something that people were doing what they thought they should do, what they felt like they were called to do but they didn't think of themselves as philanthropists but this was the community that taught me about giving and generosity," he said. “When I became a professional fundraiser and I was trying to look at the field and see how it was engaging this community and other diverse communities, and really wasn't finding much, or wasn't finding much of an understanding or a connection to it, and yet it produced me so I knew it was real, I knew it existed,” Freeman said. He also discusses MacKenzie Scott's giving and from a historical perspective when it comes to Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Freeman shares the history of Madam C.J. Walker and where her cosmetics empire stands today. "Being Black billionaires is new but giving is not," he said. The book "presents the first comprehensive story of Walker's philanthropic giving arguing that she was a significant philanthropist who challenged Jim Crow and serves as a foremother of African American philanthropy today." --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nonprofittimes/message

A new report examines how crowdfunding fits into the larger philanthropic landscape and perceptions of crowdfunding by both crowdfunding donors and non-crowdfunding donors while also looking at charitable behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study, Charitable Crowdfunding: Who Gives, to What, and Why?, by Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at IUPUI, uses data from a survey of 1,535 U.S. adults in September 2020. The sample was weighted to ensure results were representative of the general population. Una Osili, Ph.D., is associate dean for research and international programs and Efroymson Chair in Philanthropy at the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. “One of our big questions around 2020 is that in addition to studying how donors were giving, we were also looking at how philanthropy was changing during the pandemic,” she said. “What is very clear is that crowdfunding now is an important part of the philanthropy landscape and that is likely to continue going forward." In recent years, some disaster giving was starting to be powered through crowdfunding, with donors connecting with individuals affected by hurricanes in Texas and Puerto Rico, according to Osili. "With COVID, we're starting to see some of that take place, where individuals are supporting campaigns that are designed to help other individuals. Some of them artists in the community or small businesses. So the notion of generosity expanding means that we're also seeing new types of causes emerge or cause areas," she said, such as funds directed to help essential workers. Crowdfunding donors tend to be more diverse, younger, less religious and more likely to be single, compared to traditional charitable giving donors. Nearly 20% of donors typically give to social justice causes. A higher percentage of those who give through crowdfunding (27.7%) or social media (28.6%) support social justice causes, compared to traditional charitable donors.

Outlook For Charitable Giving

Early indicators show that charitable giving was up in 2020 in response to the coronavirus pandemic. Projections for giving in 2021 and 2022 are even rosier. Charitable giving is expected to increase 4.1% this year, buoyed by individual giving (+6%), and another 5.7% in 2022 on the strength of increased giving via foundations (+8.8%) and estates (+11.9%). On this episode of the Fresh Research podcast, Una Osili, Ph.D., joins us to break down the projections from the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at IUPUI in Indianapolis, Ind. She is associate dean for research and international programs and a professor of economics and philanthropic studies at the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. She's also a dean's fellow at the Mays Family Institute on Diverse Philanthropy. The Lilly School partners with the University of Pennsylvania Wharton School of Business, which provides data using the Penn Wharton Budget Model for select economic variables used in producing the estimates. Growth rates are based on predictions for giving in inflation-adjusted 2019 dollars using 2020 as the base year. Projections are a “best-case scenario,” if Gross Domestic Product (GDP) recovers in 2021 as is expected by the Congressional Budget office (CBO) and others. “In terms of overall growth in philanthropy, we do have to be concerned that underlying models show recovery but that recovery certainly is not expected to be broad based,” Osili said. “Some sectors of the economy are recovering faster than others, and some households have been more affected by the pandemic, not just their health conditions but also their incomes, their wealth, their ability to access employment,” she said. “This is the extension of the K-shaped recovery we heard a lot about in 2020 where some American workers are able to work from home, work remotely, and their incomes, their wealth, if not grown, have at least stayed relatively stable through 2020-2021,” Osili said. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nonprofittimes/message

In this episode… When it comes to governance, the board has a proven duty of care to manage the nonprofit's affairs prudently. But that doesn't necessarily mean the board does all the work; instead, it means that good governance is critical to any organization's success. And for this success to be met, there must be core principles at play behind it.  What are these core principles of good governance for nonprofit organizations—and how can fundraisers better partner with their boards?  Join the conversation on this episode of the Philanthropy212 Podcast with Penny Cowden and Consultant and Adjunct Faculty at Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Philip Purcell. Together, they talk about sound governance principles in not-for-profit organizations, how to work with the board of your organization on best practices, and the importance of continuous education.

Bill Myers Inspires  Chaos and Kairos: Where Do We Go from Here? What is America's history on voting? By examining the significance of this moment in America, we will explore the chaos and the "kairos" with scholar and Pastor Dr. Harrison-Jones to discover the real opportunity America faces. The Reverend Dr. Winterbourne LaPucelle Harrison-Jones is a scholar, author, ecclesial leader, and distinguished Churchman out of the linage of Dr. William Augustus Jones, Dr. James Forbes, Dr. Mordecai Wyatt Johnson, The Reverend Marvin Chandler, and Dr. Howard Thurman. A fifth-generation minister, Dr. Harrison-Jones is widely sought after as a preacher, speaker and workshop facilitator. Reverend Harrison-Jones is a 2006 graduate of Theodore Roosevelt Senior High School in Washington, D.C. and a 2010 graduate of the historic Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee, where he earned his bachelor's degree in Religious and Philosophical Studies. While at Fisk University, Reverend Harrison-Jones had the distinct opportunity of being mentored by Fisk University President and former United States Secretary of Energy, The Honorable Hazel R.

Reverend Harrison-Jones simultaneously matriculated in two national doctoral programs, earning the Doctor of Ministry from Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School and is currently pursuing the PhD in Urban Education from Indiana University Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPUI). As a scholar, Reverend Harrison-Jones investigates how theological and homiletic resources within Christian traditions are valuable for interpreting and responding to such pressing public issues as economic deprivation, religious bigotry, racism, class inequity, and structural inequality. His credo is shaped by words of noted scholar, theologian and 1926 graduate of Rochester Theological Seminary, now Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School, Dr. Howard Thurman, “Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive!” Reverend Harrison-Jones is the esteemed Pastor of the historic Witherspoon Presbyterian Church in Indianapolis, Indiana.   https://wpcindy.org ~ More About Bill Myers Inspires ~  Emmy Award-winning actor Bill Myers is an accomplished actor, jazz musician, filmmaker, writer, educator, and speaker.
