Long-term stress can have many negative outcomes for parents in the U.S., so much so that the U.S. surgeon general says it's time to start treating parental stress as a public health issue.

Today's fundraising leadership conversation comes from Jakarta in Indonesia, the world's most generous country. No country in the world gives as much per capita to charities. This conversation is with Luki Kurniyawan, who is the Director of Support Operations for Yayasan CARE Peduli, CARE international's lead NGO partner in Indonesia. Luki's remit includes coordinating the whole internal structure of YCP to deliver its strategic objectives, with responsibility for fundraising thrown in too. In this conversation we're going to be talking about the practical side of corporate partnerships: where they come from how to build them how to present costs and budgets (that level of detail) how to manage expectations and relationships along the way This was a really interesting conversation for me. I've always enjoyed the challenges and opportunities of initiating and building corporate partnerships as the points where two very different worlds, cultures, ideologies collide. It was great to hear Luki's perspectives and ideas and I'm sure you'll enjoy my conversation with him today. Resources and links mentioned in this episode: CARE International https://www.care-international.org/ Yayasan CARE Peduli https://careindonesia.or.id/en/home/ I hope you've enjoyed listening to this episode of the Fundraising Radicals podcast and that this conversation has challenged, informed, and maybe even inspired you and your fundraising leadership practice. As always, we're grateful to Scaling Up Nutrition Civil Society Network and Care International who are co-funding the Global Radicals Fundraising Leadership Programme, of which this podcast is just one part as we navigate global fundraising together as a global community. Please do subscribe to the podcast on the platform of your choice. If you're a regular listener, you may have noticed that we've recently switched the frequency of these episodes. We've learned a lot over the last few months as we've set this podcast up, as we found our rhythm and what works. We are in this for the long term. Our promise to you is that every month, we'll continue to explore new global perspectives on fundraising and leadership from Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America, that challenge us all to think differently about our communities, our causes, and our charities and their place in the world.

In March 2004, the unprovoked ambush killing and desecration of the bodies of American civilian security contractors in Fallujah, Iraq, caused the National Command Authorities in Washington, DC. to demand that the newly arrived Marine Expeditionary Force there take action against the perpetrators and other insurgent forces. Planned Stability and Support Operations were cast aside as insurgent fighters dared the Marines to enter Fallujah. Marine infantrymen, tankers, helicopter crews, and amphibious vehicle drivers all pitched into high-intensity battles and firefights during the first fights of Fallujah in April 2004. Across the board cooperation and innovation marked these fighting Marines in combined arms fights that no one expected. Marines fought in the streets, conducted house-to-house searches, cleared buildings of enemy, and used tank main guns in direct support of urban environment operations. Helicopter crews supported operations on the ground with rockets and machine-gun fire, and Amtrac Marines transported forces to face enemy RPG and machine-gun fire. Marines from infantry squad members to a battalion commander were interviewed by Marine Corps field historians within days or weeks of the events at nearby combat outposts and camps. David E Kelly's book First Fights in Fallujah: Marines During Operation Vigilant Resolve, in Iraq, April 2004 (Casemate, 2023) combines these interview notes and the words of the men themselves to create a unique narrative of Marines in this combat. Casualties only stiffened the will of the Marines to crush the enemy. A late April political plan called for the withdrawal of Marine forces from the city, and Marines at every level, though frustrated, understood the need to allow this attempted solution to play itself out.

This podcast was a unique and different podcast compared to the normal Culture Crush Business Podcast. This was an opportunity for our host, Kindra Maples, to join another podcast in the Phoenix community. Kelly Lorenzen, the host of the Collaborative Connections Podcast and the owner of KLM Consulting, brings 3 individuals together from the community to connect and collaborate. The best part of this podcast conversation was the topic that it quickly leaned toward- CULTURE! This is a conversation that people can always contribute to and as we saw in the discussion here, it was a topic that they wanted to bring up and be part of. This was a great opportunity for the Culture Crush Business Podcast and we hope to join forces with Kelly again in the future.

Conscious Capitalism Arizona Free enterprise capitalism has served to lift more people out of poverty than any other socio-economic system ever conceived – empowering social cooperation, human progress, and elevating humanity. Good business is the answer to many of the global issues that humankind is facing. For too long, capitalism in the media has been associated with lying, cheating, manipulating, gaming the system, and taking advantage of society. But for every horror story being told about the selfishness of corporate America and Wall Street, there are thousands of stories of businesses supporting their communities, investing in their employees, and making the world a better place. We are working to change the capitalism narrative by shining a bright light on good business – telling the stories of conscious Arizona companies (and encouraging others to follow in their footsteps). There is a lot in her background that has led Kindra Maples to where she is today. Her past experiences, interactions, careers, and partnerships have led her to grow the roles she holds in the community; the VP of Volunteers with Conscious Capitalism Arizona, Sales Development with YellowBird, and the host of the Culture Crush Business Podcast. She is a spartan racer, past animal trainer, previous magician's assistant, and has a weakness for Oreo cookie shakes. Her journey working with people actually started working with animals as a teenager (don't worry we won't go that far back for her bio). She worked for over 15 years in the zoo industry working with animals and the public. Her passion for working with animals shifted into working with people in education, operations, and leadership roles. From there her passion for leadership and helping people develop has continued to grow. Her experience in non-profit operations, communications, and program engagement have brought her to the place she is today. Her experiences have built her passion and her “why” in areas of culture building, engagement, and growing strong teams. Connect with Kindra on LinkedIn and follow Conscious Capitalism Arizona on Facebook, Twitter ,and Instagram.
