A one-time allocation for Tribal Colleges and Universities unexpectedly just doubled the federal allocation compared to the previous year. And a small handful of colleges are rejoicing over multi-million-dollar windfalls from philanthropist MacKenzie Scott. But that doesn't mean officials at any of those institutions are breathing a sigh of relief. Instead, the unpredictable nature of federal funding and other factors — including the Trump administration's stated plan earlier this year to all but eliminate their funding, has tribal higher education administrators scrambling. We'll speak with some of them about the educational institutions that thousands of Native students depend on.

Xavier University of Louisiana is the latest HBCU to benefit from MacKenzie Scott's transformative philanthropy. The billionaire author and philanthropist has donated $38 million to the university, boosting student support, academic services, and affordability programs. Scott has given more than $740 million to HBCUs this year alone.

In this episode of Burn Notice, we break down the story most folks don't know—the real reason MacKenzie Scott is dropping life-changing money on HBCUs. Napalm and I connect the dots: Toni Morrison mentored MacKenzie when she was a student at Princeton, even writing the recommendation that led to the hedge-fund job where she met Jeff Bezos. Without that Black woman pouring into her, MacKenzie's entire life trajectory changes. So her generosity isn't a “white savior” move—it's gratitude, legacy, and paying forward what Toni Morrison gave her. That's the story the media isn't telling.
On this episode of Burn Notice, we shift from politics to the culture. Napalm and Firestarter talk about MacKenzie Scott—a billionaire actually putting her money where her mouth is and dropping millions on HBCUs with no strings attached. But we ask the bigger question: why do the same “elite” HBCUs always get the shine while the smaller schools struggle to survive? We dig into elitism, endowments, and whether the Black community has a responsibility to support the underdogs—the Voorhees, the Paines, and the Fort Valley HBCUs. It's not just about donations. It's about remembering where we came from.

This week on Giving Done Right, we're introducing you to another podcast we love: Nonprofits Now: Leading Today, from The Chronicle of Philanthropy. In this episode, two leaders, Kathleen St. Louis Caliento and Nick Grono, join Chronicle CEO Stacy Palmer to explain how they have engaged their board in financial efforts. As nonprofits face economic headwinds — including losses in federal funding, rising costs, and the possibility of a global recession — nonprofit boards play an increasingly essential role. Trustees help with strategy and can also be powerful donors and fundraisers. Yet fewer than a quarter of respondents to a Chronicle survey described their board members as enthusiastic fundraisers. Grono and St. Louis Caliento share their advice on how to inspire boards to champion your mission and share insights from their shared experience of working with trustees to manage unrestricted, multimillion-dollar grants from MacKenzie Scott. St. Louis Caliento runs Cara Collective, a Chicago nonprofit that helps low-income people find jobs. Grono heads the Freedom Fund, an organization that pools funds from donors who want to fight modern-day slavery. He's the author of “How to Lead Nonprofits: Turning Purpose into Impact to Change the World,” published in 2024.
Stacy Palmer leads The Chronicle of Philanthropy, the leading journal in the world of nonprofits. In this Blue Sky conversation, she talks about the evolution of nonprofits into sophisticated organizations that do remarkable work around the world. She describes the role of donors large and small, and how they're helping address challenges created by cuts in government funding. Stacy also shares her belief that nothing gets done in this space without a healthy dose of optimism. Chapters: 02:04 Origins of the Chronicle of Philanthropy Stacy Palmer discusses the founding of The Chronicle of Philanthropy, explaining how the professionalization and growth of the nonprofit sector created a need for a dedicated publication. 05:09 Motivation and Evolution of Philanthropy Stacy shares what inspires her in philanthropy, emphasizing the drive to make a difference and adapt to new global challenges like climate change. 07:14 Mega-Philanthropists and Giving Trends Stacy discusses the significant growth of wealth and the rise of mega-philanthropists like Bill and Melinda Gates, who are making record-setting donations during their lifetimes. She also notes the concerning trend of a precipitous drop in the percentage of Americans who give to charity, now less than 50%. 09:50 Ted Turner's Impact on Giving Bill Burke recalls Ted Turner's billion-dollar donation to the UN and his challenge to other billionaires, including Bill Gates, to give more. Stacy confirms Turner's inspiration for the mega-philanthropy boom and the Chronicle's tradition of ranking top givers, an idea Ted championed. 12:15 American Philanthropy vs. Government Aid Stacy explains the strong American tradition of charitable giving and volunteering, partly due to fewer government social services compared to European countries. She addresses whether individual giving can fill gaps left by government cuts, noting that while people respond generously, philanthropic funds are tiny compared to government provisions. 14:05 Nonprofits in Media and Entrepreneurship Stacy highlights the innovation possible in nonprofits and emphasizes that optimism is crucial for founders, who are a form of entrepreneur believing change is possible even when facing long-term, complicated problems. 18:02 Optimism in Nonprofit Work She notes that almost all people in this field are optimists, tempered by reality, who believe individuals and collective efforts can make a difference. 20:09 Nonprofits Now Podcast & Burnout Stacy discusses her podcast, Nonprofits Now, which focuses on advice from nonprofit leaders to combat burnout, a common issue in the field. 25:01 Challenges and Volunteerism Stacy addresses the inherent grind of nonprofit work due to long-term, complex problems and the perception that it's not a 'serious' career. 31:37 MacKenzie Scott's Philanthropic Model Stacy details MacKenzie Scott's unique philanthropic approach, characterized by surprise, no-strings-attached gifts to often overlooked organizations. She highlights Scott's rigorous vetting process and the transformative impact of unrestricted funds, which combat nonprofit burnout caused by restrictive grants and overhead limitations. 39:39 Future Trends in Philanthropy Stacy forecasts a surge in charitable giving as communities experience the impact of service cuts, driving both individuals and foundations to step up. 45:39 Conclusion and Outreach Stacy Palmer encourages listeners to find the "Nonprofits Now" podcast and visit philanthropy.com to learn more about the Chronicle of Philanthropy. Bill Burke thanks her for her inspiring insights and commitment to optimism in the nonprofit world, urging listeners to rate and subscribe to the Blue Sky Podcast.

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show Podcast delivers a powerful message of compassion and unity as Ricky and the crew broadcast live from the Christian Service Mission in Birmingham, Alabama, calling on listeners nationwide to help feed families impacted by the federal SNAP benefits pause amid the government shutdown.

Today's Headlines: Hurricane Melissa tore through the Caribbean just as feared, leaving dozens dead and catastrophic damage across Jamaica, Cuba, and Haiti before weakening to a Category 1 on its way to the Bahamas. Nearly 80% of Jamaica is still without power, and hundreds remain missing across the islands. In Gaza, Israel resumed airstrikes that killed around 100 people after a soldier was shot in Rafah — but quickly announced the ceasefire was back on. Hamas says it's delaying the return of hostage remains in response to the strikes. Trump, meanwhile, is still globe-trotting — now in South Korea, where he announced the U.S. will share sensitive nuclear submarine technology, one of the country's most tightly guarded military secrets. This comes months after North Korea bragged about its own nuclear-powered sub. Back home, a new Pentagon memo ordered all 50 states, D.C., and U.S. territories to form “quick reaction forces” — over 23,000 National Guard troops trained for riot control — to respond to potential unrest. The administration also indicted its first Gen Z political figure: 26-year-old Illinois Democrat Kat Abughazaleh, charged with assaulting an ICE officer during a protest — charges that could carry up to 14 years in prison. On the money front, the Senate symbolically voted against Trump's 50% tariffs on Brazil (which won't actually change anything), the Fed cut interest rates another 0.25%, and the shutdown continues as millions risk losing food aid. The Dow hit a record 48,000 — mostly thanks to AI stocks — even as layoffs surge at UPS, Nestlé, and Amazon. And in some good news for once, philanthropist Mackenzie Scott donated $60 million to the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and another $38 million to Alabama State University — the largest gift in the HBCU's 158-year history.

Het was de dag dat TSMC - een klant van ASML- records breekt. Winst en omzet overtreffen de verwachtingen. TSMC heeft nergens last van en trekt andere chip-bedrijven omhoog. Weer een feestje voor chip-aandelen dus. Deze aflevering kijken we hoe lang de polonaise duurt. En welk bedrijf er het meest aan overhoudt.Hebben we het ook over Fastned. Het laadbedrijf meldt zelf ook records (qua omzet en brutowinst) en blijft flink uitbreiden. We kijken wanneer dit kleine aandeel zich oplaad tot een Midkap- (of zelfs AEX-) bedrijf.Verder hebben we het over de handelsoorlog. Trump geeft toe dat die er is, maar zegt tegelijkertijd dat de wapenstilstand verlengd moet worden(?). Is daar ook nog Scott Bessent, zijn minister van Financien, die een Chinese oud-minister beledigd. En we hebben het over een Fed-bestuurder die wil dat de rente flink verlaagd wordt.Daar stopt het niet, want het gaat ook over de ex van Jeff Bezos (die géén midlifecrisis heeft), over BAM dat gigantisch onderuit ging op basis van één analist en je hoort over de plannen van de nieuwe baas van Nestlé.

Voices is a new mini-series from Humanitarian AI Today. In daily five-minute flashpods we pass the mic to innovators, researchers and practitioners on the humanitarian front lines, delivering real-time news on how they are building, testing and collaborating on uses of artificial intelligence. In this podcast episode, Bill Greer, Co-founder of Common Space joins Senior Geospatial Data Scientist, Gijs van den Dool to discuss Common Space's work focusing on building open-licensed, freely accessible, high-resolution earth observation satellites dedicated to humanitarian aid. They discuss the project from technical vantage points and address core problems that Common Space aims to solve. They touch on the accessibility of satellites and data for use by humanitarian organizations and how aid funding cuts, structural changes in the commercial imagery market, limited observational capacity and competition combined with the critical need for the humanitarian community to avoid overreliance on third-parties for critical services, necessitate the development of initiatives like Common Space.

What happens when $2.83 billion disappears from women's rights funding globally? Conversely, what is possible when donors break out of traditional silos to work collaboratively with the goal of abundance and liberation for all? Phil Buchanan and Grace Nicolette talk with Happy Mwende Kinyili, co-executive director of global feminist fund Mama Cash to explore this unprecedented crisis — and discover surprising reasons for hope. Happy shares powerful stories from Kenya to Argentina, explaining how participatory grantmaking creates lasting change and why "the people who've gotten us into this mess aren't going to get us out of it." For donors feeling overwhelmed by massive global needs or the frustrating retrenchments of recent years, Happy offers their own mother's wisdom: "Don't try to do everything, do something." Learn how small actions can have huge impact, why trust-based philanthropy works, and how co-leadership models are reshaping organizations.

Kyung discusses:How KACF was born out of a dinner conversation among Korean American professionals who wanted to give back to their community.The impact of the “model minority” myth on Korean and Asian American communities, and how it can obscure real needs.How KACF started with a grassroots “Dollar a Day” campaign to fund grants to Korean American nonprofits.Why KACF chose to become a community foundation and what that means for how they raise and distribute funds.How KACF has distributed over $17 million in grants since its founding in 2002, including over $3 million last year alone.The broad range of issues KACF funds to build economic security, from food insecurity to housing, health, and domestic violence.KACF's commitment to systemic change, not just direct service, funding advocacy, and policy change efforts.How the Giving Summit engages the Korean American community in thoughtful, intentional philanthropy.How receiving a grant from MacKenzie Scott validated KACF's work and expanded its impact.Kyung's vision for a future where Korean Americans see themselves as funders and philanthropists with the power to uplift their own communities.References:KACF WebsiteMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/zoo/clarityLicense code: RQWZMZXYSBVT16ZW

In this episode, we explore the life of a woman who helped build Amazon, pursued her passion as a novelist, and is now transforming philanthropy through one of the most radical giving sprees in modern history. From working with Toni Morrison to anonymously donating billions to overlooked organizations, MacKenzie Scott is quietly rewriting the rules of power, wealth, and generosity.
