Earlier this year I heard Doug Cobb speak about the organization he leads, The Finishing Fund, and I was intrigued. The Finishing Fund is like a venture capital fund for evangelical work around the world. Like a venture capital fund in the secular space, it doesn't fully fund a work, but provides seed capital to get the work started. It works through partners “on the ground” in some of the most remote and hostile areas on the planet. I liked what I heard for a variety of reasons that are important to us here at MinistryWatch. For one, The Finishing Fund exercised a high degree of accountability and transparency. It was nimble. It could fund a group in weeks or months, and if the projects went well, it could make follow-on investments. And, equally important, if things were not working out, it could pull the plug on that project just as quickly. I wanted to have Doug on the program to discuss this innovative model for missions and philanthropy. He's my guest today. Doug Cobb is himself a major investor in the Fund and volunteers as its managing partner. An entrepreneur from Louisville, Kentucky, Doug has been working with Finishing the Task and the Issachar Initiative for a decade. We had this conversation via zoom. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. I'm Warren Smith. And I'd like to remind you that we are in the midst of our year-end fundraising campaign. Here at MinistryWatch we get more than a third, nearly 40 percent, of our budget in the past two months of the year. For us, that means about $190,000. If you are able to contribute, click here. Until next time, may God bless you.

For years, Prince Andrew held dozens — some estimates put it around 200 — of charity patronages and official royal-charity affiliations. Through Prince Andrew Charitable Trust (PACT), and initiatives such as his youth-education and entrepreneurship efforts, he presented himself as a public-spirited royal using his status to do good. That network of charities and institutions provided him with a veneer of respectability and influence: being associated with educational causes, technology and enterprise awards, youth outreach, and philanthropic work helped him cultivate an image of legitimacy and public service. This charitable web likely served as a buffer — intended to reassure the public and institutions that despite the scandal swirling around him, he remained a committed royal working for social good.But as the scandal involving Jeffrey Epstein and abuse allegations gained traction, that armor cracked. After his controversial 2019 media interview, many charities began severing ties: dozens publicly removed him as patron, fearing reputational damage.  Moreover, regulatory scrutiny exposed mis-management in his own charity: the watchdog closed PACT after finding unlawful payments (hundreds of thousands of pounds) to a trustee linked to his staff, forcing the charity to return the money.   What began as a shield against scandal became, for many observers, proof that his charitable works lacked proper governance — and that the network he hoped would protect him instead deepened the perceived misconduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

As the current federal administration makes sweeping cuts to social safety net programs, political divisions deepen, and the guardrails of American democracy are tested, what is philanthropy's role in this precarious time?  In the final episode of this season, Phil Buchanan and Grace Nicolette interview New York Times columnist and podcast host Ezra Klein live at CEP's 2025 conference. Klein contends that America needs to renew a politics of plenty, face up to the failures of liberal governance, and abandon what he calls the chosen scarcities that have deformed American life. But what does this analysis mean for philanthropy, particularly at a moment of so many competing and urgent crises?

Mr. Beast Biography Flash a weekly Biography.Good evening, listeners. Here's your MrBeast update for the past few days.The YouTube megastar, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, has been absolutely everywhere lately. Most recently, the 27-year-old content creator launched Beast Land, a pop-up theme park in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, opening with over seven thousand people on day one. According to reports from his team, the launch was a logistical masterpiece—Donaldson personally appeared to meet fans, and they had to design an intricate system distributing 250 golden tickets just to manage the crowds wanting photos with him. It's the kind of spectacle only MrBeast could pull off.On the business front, trademark filings reveal Donaldson is expanding into fintech. According to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, Beast Holdings LLC filed for a neobank application in October, indicating plans to launch financial services including short-term lending, investment management, and cryptocurrency exchange. It's another piece of his sprawling empire that already includes MrBeast Burger, his entertainment studio, and upcoming ventures.But here's where it gets interesting on the philanthropic side. The Rockefeller Foundation, one of America's oldest charities, announced a major strategic partnership with Beast Philanthropy. According to sources close to the deal, the two organizations are combining Donaldson's unmatched ability to capture youth attention with the foundation's 112 years of development expertise. They're planning a trip to Ghana next year to tackle child labor in cocoa farming, directly connecting to Donaldson's chocolate company Feastables, which aims to prove chocolate production can be profitable without child labor.Perhaps most revealing is Donaldson's recent candid admission about his finances. Despite being worth an estimated one billion dollars on paper, the YouTube star says he has very little personal cash because he reinvests nearly everything into content and philanthropy. In fact, he's reportedly borrowing money from his mom to pay for his upcoming wedding to author Thea Booysen, whom he proposed to on Christmas 2024. He spent roughly a quarter billion dollars on content this year alone.Looking ahead, Donaldson is launching the One Billion Acts of Kindness campaign, inviting creators worldwide to participate in what could be his most ambitious philanthropic initiative yet.Thanks for tuning in to this MrBeast edition.

It's no surprise that liberal philanthropy — a longtime pillar of the Democratic establishment — has become one of the Trump administration's latest targets. As David Callahan writes in our December issue, liberal foundations “have often been depicted as the great puppet masters of the left, bankrolling and directing a who's who of progressive groups intent on destroying the American way of life.” In other words, catnip for MAGA madness.But as Callahan points out, the reality of how these institutions operate is far from radical. As powerbrokers of the elite, liberal philanthropists are averse to challenging “the systems that spawned them.”How have liberal foundations failed to mobilize working-class Americans? And how can they ramp up the fight to defend the democracy they claim to care so much about saving?Joining us to discuss this is David Callahan, founder and editor of Inside Philanthropy, and author of The Givers: Wealth, Power and Philanthropy in a New Gilded Age.Our Sponsors:* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This conversation offers an in-depth look at the evolving landscape of philanthropy, global health, and development funding, with a particular focus on Sub-Saharan Africa. The discussion examines how current geopolitical and economic pressures are reshaping what effective partnership, sustainability, and impact look like for funders, governments, and civil society. The episode explores a wide range of thematic priorities including maternal, newborn, and child health; pediatric and adolescent HIV; early childhood development; human resources for health; and humanitarian response. It illuminates why deeply understanding country-level contexts—systems, supply chains, human capital, financing constraints, and government priorities—is central to strategic philanthropy. A significant portion of the conversation addresses how private philanthropy can play a constructive, catalytic role amid a period of unusually rapid change in global aid flows. Topics include the risks of backsliding on key health indicators, strategies for identifying truly local and embedded implementing partners, and the importance of moving from project-based funding toward general operating support to strengthen long-term institutional capacity. The episode also examines the realities and complexities of co-funding with other foundations, multilaterals, and bilaterals—what genuine partnership requires, how priorities are aligned, and how fragmentation can be reduced. A major highlight is the creation of the Beginnings Fund, a large-scale collaborative effort uniting several private funders to meaningfully advance maternal and newborn health across multiple countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. Looking ahead, the conversation outlines both the challenges and opportunities that lie between now and 2030. It reflects on where renewed discipline, focus, and collaboration are most urgently needed, and why the current moment may also be a rare chance for long-overdue recalibration in global health and development.

In this episode of The First Day from The Fundraising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., is joined by the philanthropic powerhouse himself, Gene Tempel, Ed.D., Dean Emeritus and founding father of the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. Together, they dive headfirst into a question that keeps many nonprofit leaders up at night: “Is this a bad time to launch a capital campaign?” The answer? Well, let's just say it's complicated, but not impossible. Gene reminds us that before we start counting pledges, we've got to answer the most basic question: What's the compelling case for support? It's not about shinier buildings or more vans, it's about fulfilling the mission and addressing urgent needs in society. Now, if you're waiting for a perfect economy, spoiler alert: you'll be waiting a long time. From the energy crisis to the Great Recession to COVID, Gene's seen it all, and fundraisers kept fundraising. Instead of running from uncertainty, nonprofits should focus on preparation. That means digging into the test for readiness, planning like it's a chess game (hello, “what-if” scenarios), and launching feasibility studies that give donors the mic. Because, as Gene points out, “not everyone is affected the same way” in tough times. Some donors are doing just fine and may even be more ready to give than you think. Gene takes us inside the anatomy of a capital campaign and zeroes in on the often-forgotten “middle of the gift range chart,” the fundraising Bermuda Triangle. We know our biggest donors. We love our annual givers. But what about those $2,000 donors who could be cultivated into $25,000 champions? “That's where it breaks down,” Gene says. Building systems to engage mid-level donors isn't just smart, it's essential. It's also okay to fail the readiness test, pause a campaign, or renegotiate pledge timelines. Flexibility is not a weakness. It's leadership. Gene offers some pop-culture perspective: as Billy Joel once sang, “We didn't start the fire,” and neither did you. History is full of crises, but capital campaigns still thrive. “If you have a compelling case, urgency, internal readiness, and donor validation,” Gene says, “then go forward.” And if things go sideways? Adjust, adapt, and keep your eyes on the mission. Because fundraising isn't just about money, it's about movement. And thanks to legends like Dr. Tempel, this movement's got a playbook for every season.

This charitable web likely served as a buffer — intended to reassure the public and institutions that despite the scandal swirling around him, he remained a committed royal working for social good.But as the scandal involving Jeffrey Epstein and abuse allegations gained traction, that armor cracked. After his controversial 2019 media interview, many charities began severing ties: dozens publicly removed him as patron, fearing reputational damage.  Moreover, regulatory scrutiny exposed mis-management in his own charity: the watchdog closed PACT after finding unlawful payments (hundreds of thousands of pounds) to a trustee linked to his staff, forcing the charity to return the money.   What began as a shield against scandal became, for many observers, proof that his charitable works lacked proper governance — and that the network he hoped would protect him instead deepened the perceived misconduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mr. Beast Biography Flash a weekly Biography.Jimmy Donaldson, known worldwide as MrBeast, has been making major moves across multiple ventures as we head into the final month of 2025. According to Global Fintech Insider, the YouTube megastar filed a trademark application in October under Beast Holdings LLC for what appears to be a neobank targeting his 447 million subscribers. The filing with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office lists services for short-term cash advances, consumer lending, investment management, financial education, cryptocurrency exchange, and credit and debit card issuance. While trademark filings are preliminary steps and a significant distance from actual bank licensing, this move signals serious intentions to enter the financial services space, building on Donaldson's previous investments in fintech companies like Current and Bitski.On the philanthropy front, Beast Philanthropy announced a major strategic partnership with the Rockefeller Foundation on November 24th. This collaboration pairs Donaldson's unparalleled ability to engage youth audiences with the foundation's 112-year legacy of tackling global problems. The partnership focuses on inspiring younger generations, particularly Gen Z, to care about vulnerable populations worldwide. Notably, the two organizations plan to visit Ghana early next year to collaborate on development and community-led change initiatives. Through his snack company Feastables, Donaldson continues championing fair-trade chocolate production and fighting child labor on cacao farms, hoping to provide farmers with living wages while rallying consumers around ethical practices.Beyond these ventures, MrBeast's sprawling empire continues expanding. According to Business Insider reporting, the creator revealed ownership stakes in Beast Industries during a deposition, underscoring the scale of his business empire estimated at around five billion dollars. The company has been aggressively hiring new executives to strengthen content production and brand partnership capabilities.The partnership with Rockefeller Foundation represents perhaps the most significant development, signaling a maturation of Donaldson's approach to philanthropy. Rather than operating solo, he's deliberately seeking established expertise to ensure his charitable work creates lasting, measurable impact beyond viral moments.Thanks so much for tuning in to this episode.

Mr. Beast Biography Flash a weekly Biography.MrBeast has had a monumental few days in the headlines and business world. The single biggest news story comes from Fortune and is confirmed by The Rockefeller Foundation itself: Jimmy Donaldson's Beast Philanthropy has unveiled a strategic partnership with the Rockefeller Foundation to amplify youth engagement in global philanthropy. This alliance aims to leverage MrBeast's formidable reach among Gen Z and younger millennials—and the foundation's 112-year legacy in fighting poverty, boosting health, and eradicating hunger. The organizations are pooling their resources and expertise, beginning with initiatives tackling child labor in the cocoa industry. MrBeast's snack brand Feastables will be the case study for ethical chocolate production, and both teams will visit Ghana in the new year to refine their approach to yielding community-driven, lasting change. MrBeast is openly seeking to “download the brains” of Rockefeller's veteran nonprofit strategists to avoid rookie mistakes and create smarter impact faster. Major philanthropy insiders have praised MrBeast for demonstrating humility and a fresh willingness to collaborate on difficult global issues.Recent business moves are gripping the fintech world. According to Global Fintech Insider, MrBeast has filed a new trademark via Beast Holdings LLC, indicating plans for a US neobank and banking app tailored to his extraordinary fanbase—447 million subscribers and counting. The filing covers consumer lending, investment management, crypto exchange, and even card services, suggesting he's gearing up to disrupt digital banking using his direct audience loyalty. It follows previous speculation from Business Insider about a possible financial services pitch, and is significant because MrBeast already invests in notable fintech startups like Current and crypto ventures Artifact Labs and Bitski, both now acquired. While the trademark doesn't guarantee a full banking launch, it marks a new chapter in celebrity fintech.On the entertainment front, About Amazon reports that MrBeast's reality competition show Beast Games smashed Prime Video records as its most-watched unscripted series ever. Viewers can expect even higher stakes in season two beginning January 2026, where 200 contestants battle for a $10 million cash prize—the largest in reality TV. MrBeast, whose audience now exceeds 450 million across all platforms, continues to blend philanthropy with viral content, and his production studio saw major executive hires and a swirl of recent controversies that only heightened pre-release buzz.As for corporate specifics, Business Insider confirms that MrBeast still holds “a little over half” of his sprawling Beast Industries empire, recently valued at $5 billion. That level of control signals continued entrepreneurial agility and direct influence over his growing suite of ventures, from video stunts to food brands and theme parks.On social media, the Beast Philanthropy partnership launch with Rockefeller Foundation was heavily promoted across MrBeast's Instagram and X accounts, sparking widespread discussion about influencer impacts in global giving. The philanthropic announcement overlapped with teasers from MrBeast on upcoming Ghana trips and fair-trade chocolate reform, fueling both anticipation and debate online.I want to thank you for listening and remind you to subscribe to never miss an update on MrBeast.
