Universities folded. Broadcast media folded. Law firms folded. But there’s a glimmer of hope that the next target on President Donald Trump’s list — left-leaning philanthropic groups — is ready to fight.
For months, more than 70 nonprofit organizations have been communicating about how to respond in the face of anticipated attacks from the administration, said Glen Galaich, CEO of the San Francisco-based Stupski Foundation, which has given away roughly $600 million over the past decade and intends to spend down its endowment by the end of next year.
“I’ve never seen anything like (this level of communication) in the (25) years I’ve been doing this work,” Galaich said. He added, however, “it’s one thing to be talking and communicating. It’s another thing to actually put in place a long-term strategy for addressing where our country has gone. And I just don’t see that happening right now.”
