The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation is a private foundation founded in 1926. It funds organizations and communities in four strategic subject areas: local issues related to Flint, Michigan; civil society; education; and the environment. At its inception grants were focused in the United States, but it has expanded internationally with offices in three countries and grants made in 62 nations.[1][2]

EventDescription
Open Society FoundationsA NGO operating in more countries than McDonald's. It has the tendency to support politicians (at times through astroturfing) and activists that get branded as "extreme left" as its founder is billionaire and bane of the pound George Soros. This polarizing perspective causes the abnormal influence of the OSF to go somewhat unanswered.
