Podcast: One CA features Founder and CEO Jim Hake on mobilizing private support for US foreign policy

Jim Hake, founder and CEO of Spirit of America, recently appeared on the One CA Podcast.

Jim shares how Spirit of America bridges critical gaps in foreign assistance — delivering rapid, locally tailored support that helps advance US foreign policy goals in complex environments.

From frontline partnerships in Ukraine and West Africa to strategic engagement in the Indo-Pacific, Jim explains how Spirit of America works alongside Civil Affairs teams and other US personnel to build trust, deliver impact, and reinforce democratic values.

One CA is a production of The Civil Affairs Association, featuring voices from the field — military, diplomatic, development, and intelligence professionals — who operate in the “last three feet” of US foreign relations.
