WITH MORE ON THE INSTITUTION I'M

ALLIANCE CEO CLAUDIA CUMMINGS.

6
00:00:34.267 --> 00:00:47.580
WELCOME TO YOU BOTH.
>> THANK YOU.
>> ABSOLUTELY. HOW DOES THE
ALIGNS FIT INTO A LARGER PICTURE

7
00:00:47.580 --> 00:00:53.820
OF A CITY AND STATE REALLY
FOCUSED AND HAS A RICH HERITAGE
WHEN IT COMES TO PHILANTHROPY
AND GIVING?

8
00:00:53.820 --> 00:01:02.896
>> YEAH, INDIANAPOLIS AND
INDIANA IN TOTAL ARE REALLY
UNIQUE IN THE NATIONAL LANDSCAPE
IN THE PHILANTHROPIC FIELD, WE

9
00:01:02.896 --> 00:01:12.672
HAVE, IPA HAS OVER 200 MEMBERS
LOCATED THROUGHOUT THE STATE. WE
HAVE ONE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION,
IN EVERY ONE OF THE 92 COUNTIES

10
00:01:12.672 --> 00:01:25.185
IN THE STATE. AND TOGETHER, WITH
THE PRIVATE PHILANTHROPIC
EFFORTS THAT ARE UNDER WAY
THROUGH THE LARGE ORGANIZATIONS

11
00:01:25.185 --> 00:01:34.994
LIKE LILLY ENDOWMENT AND OTHERS.
WE SEE OVER $850 MILLION IMPACT
ANNUALLY IN THE STATE OF
INDIANA.

12
00:01:34.994 --> 00:01:41.901
>> WOW.
>> WE ALSO ARE HOME TO THE
NATION'S FIRST AND STRONGEST
SCHOOL OF PHILANTHROPY, AND SO

13
00:01:41.901 --> 00:01:49.943
MANY OTHER RICH ASSETS THAT MAKE
US UNIQUE IN THE NATION.
>> CLAUDIA, TALK ABOUT THE MUTZ
PHILANTHROPIC INSTITUTE AND

14
00:01:49.943 --> 00:01:59.752
RECOGNIZES AN ICONIC BUSINESS
AND LEADER IN OUR STATE, WHAT
WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED IN YOUR
VIEW WITH THIS INSTITUTE?

15
00:01:59.752 --> 00:02:07.727
>> YEAH, WELL, LAST YEAR, WE
WORKED ON A STRATEGIC PLAN AND
INTERVIEWED PHILANTHROPY
ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE STATE

16
00:02:07.727 --> 00:02:16.970
AND LEARNED ONE OF THE GREATEST
PAIN POINTS IS THE FUTURE
TALENT. WE NEED A NEW WAVE OF
STRONG LEADERSHIP IN ORDER TO

17
00:02:16.970 --> 00:02:23.943
CONTINUE TO ADVANCE SOCIAL
IMPACT THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF
INDIANA. AND WE SIMULTANEOUSLY
WERE CELEBRATING OUR 30th

18
00:02:23.943 --> 00:02:32.785
ANNIVERSARY. SO IT MADE IT A
REALLY GREAT TIME TO CELEBRATE
OUR PAST AND OUR FOUNDING BY
JOHN MUTZ, WHILE PREPARING OUR

19
00:02:32.785 --> 00:02:39.859
FUTURE THROUGH THE CREATION OF
THIS OPPORTUNITY FOR EMERGING
LEADERS AND THOSE THAT EXIST IN
LEADERSHIP BUT ARE LOOKING TO

20
00:02:39.859 --> 00:02:45.231
LEVEL UP.
>> GOING TO TALK ABOUT THAT
FIRST CLASS IN A MOMENT HERE.
BUT, JOHN, WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT

21
00:02:45.231 --> 00:02:51.604
TO YOU?
IN MY OPINION, THERE ARE FEW
THAT RIVAL THE CONTRIBUTIONS
THAT YOU'VE MADE OVER THE YEARS

22
00:02:51.604 --> 00:02:59.412
IN BUSINESS AND POLITICS,
PHILANTHROPY, COMMUNITY SUPPORT,
YOU'VE DONE A LOT OF THINGS. WHY
IS GIVING BACK IN THIS WAY WITH

23
00:02:59.412 --> 00:03:06.586
THE PHILANTHROPIC LEADERSHIP
INSTITUTE IMPORTANT TO YOU?
>> IT'S IMPORTANT TO ME BECAUSE
WE ARE TRAINING AND HOPING TO

24
00:03:06.586 --> 00:03:16.963
TRAIN A NEW WAVE OF LEADER FOR
THE PHILANTHROPIC ORGANIZATIONS
ACROSS THE STATE, AND THIS IS A
NEW WAVE OF PEOPLE WHO WILL

25
00:03:16.963 --> 00:03:25.138
BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH CAN
BE ACCOMPLISHED IN THE
PHILANTHROPIC SECTOR. FOR
EXAMPLE, WE WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE

26
00:03:25.138 --> 00:03:31.945
IN EVERY COUNTY, JUST BECAUSE
THERE'S A COMMUNITY FOUNDATION
THERE, THEY ARE THE IDEAL
ORGANIZATION TO CALL THE

27
00:03:31.945 --> 00:03:39.686
MEETING, THEY'RE THE ONES WHO
BRING THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER TO
TALK ABOUT OPPORTUNITIES, AND
PROBLEMS, AND WHAT THEY CAN PLAN

28
00:03:39.686 --> 00:03:49.429
FOR IN THE FUTURE. THOSE ARE
REASONS I CARE ABOUT IT IN TERMS
OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. BUT
OVERALL, I THINK FOR A DEMOCRACY

29
00:03:49.429 --> 00:03:57.303
TO ENDURE AS WE HAVE IN THE
UNITED STATES, I KNOW THERE'S A
LOT OF PEOPLE QUESTIONING THAT
RIGHT NOW WITH WHAT'S GOING ON.

30
00:03:57.303 --> 00:04:07.447
BUT, THE FACT IS THAT I DON'T
BELIEVE A DEMOCRACY CAN SUCCEED
LONG-TERM WITHOUT AN INDEPENDENT
SECTOR, A PHILANTHROPIC SECTOR

31
00:04:07.447 --> 00:04:18.891
THAT GIVES THOSE WHO ARE NOT
HEARD ANY OTHER WAY A WAY TO
EXPRESS THEMSELVES.
>> YEAH, WELL PUT. CLAUDIA,

32
00:04:18.891 --> 00:04:24.030
QUICKLY, YOU'RE JUST INTRODUCING
YOUR FIRST CLASS, WHAT ARE THEY
GOING TO BE DOING?
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE EXPERIENCES

33
00:04:24.030 --> 00:04:31.871
THEY'LL BE GETTING?
>> YEAH, THIS CLASS REPRESENTS
EVERY CORNER OF THE STATE, WE'RE
SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THEM. THEY

34
00:04:31.871 --> 00:04:40.480
ARE GOING TO BE HAVING A
COHORT-STYLE MONTHLY EXPERIENCE
WHERE THEY WILL FOCUS ON
DIFFERENT TOPICS, FIRST UP IS

35
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:47.887
THE HISTORY OF PHILANTHROPY, AND
WHAT'S NEXT ON THE HORIZON
NATIONWIDE FOR THE FIELD.
>> VERY GOOD, ONLY HAVE A FEW

36
00:04:47.887 --> 00:04:55.161
SECONDS LEFT. JOHN, BEFORE WE
GO, I DO WANT TO MENTION, ANYONE
LOOKING FOR A GREAT READ,
THERE'S A NEW BOOK ON JOHN MUTZ,

37
00:04:55.161 --> 00:05:03.469
YOUR LIFE EXAMINED, BASICALLY, I
HAD THE GOOD FORTUNE TO COVER
YOU AS A NEWS REPORTER, BACK IN
THE DAY, COVERED A LOT OF BIG

38
00:05:03.469 --> 00:05:09.776
STORIES AROUND THINGS YOU WERE
DOING. THIS BOOK REALLY DOES
CHRONICLE COOL THINGS THAT
HAPPENED IN INDIANA, YOU WERE A

39
00:05:09.776 --> 00:05:19.719
BIG PART OF IT.
>> WELL, I APPRECIATE THAT A
GREAT DEAL. I'VE ALSO HONORED BY
THE PHILANTHROPIC SECTOR, PUT MY

40
00:05:19.719 --> 00:05:25.692
NAME ON THIS PROGRAM. IT'S
SOMETHING I CARE DEEPLY ABOUT,
IT'S IMPORTANT TO THE FUTURE OF
THE STATE.

41
00:05:25.692 --> 00:05:34.167

AN IMPACT I AM SURE, THE MUTZ
PHILANTHROPIC INSTITUTE, JOHN
MUTZ, AND CLAUDIA CUMMINGS,
