Kellogg Foundation to left-wing, pro-socialist organizations in coordination with the Clintons and anti-American billionaire George Soros.<\/h2>\n<p>The extensive\u00a0<a class=\" x5l\" href=\"http:\/\/capitalresearch.org\/article\/kellogg-foundation-radical-leftward-drift\/?blm_aid=73224\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report<\/a>\u00a0by Capital Research Center (CRC), a conservative watchdog minding non-profit organizations, shows a long history of leftism by the foundation created by the man who founded the Michigan-based breakfast giant, Kellogg\u2019s. It also chronicles how far the foundation has drifted from its founder\u2019s wishes.<\/p>\n<p>The W.K. Kellogg Foundation is one of the largest, left-wing donors in the country, according to the report:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The W.K. Kellogg Foundation is currently the seventh-largest philanthropy in the U.S. in terms of dollars, according to a 2016 analysis of the foundation. In 2015, the last year for which its IRS filings are available, the foundation distributed nearly 2,000 grants totaling $268,065,253. It ended the year with $448,430,564 in assets.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Kellogg Foundation was originally founded to provide health care, healthy foods, and services for children in rural areas of the country. Its ultimate goal was to help Americans achieve self-reliance. But since the 1950s, the foundation began seriously straying from those ideals and edging toward funding anti-American socialist policies, ideals, and organizations.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, the report\u00a0points out that Martin Morse Wooster wrote that Kellogg himself complained about the \u201cSocialist trend\u201d in politics and \u201ccould not possibly have foreseen the way his organization would be used after his death to combat \u2018white privilege,\u2019 or assist groups like \u2018La Raza.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, W.K. Kellogg \u2014 who died in 1951 \u2014 did not lay out a concerted plan for his foundation to follow.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe direction he gave to guide future trustees,\u201d Wooster wrote, \u201cwas to \u2018use the money as you please so long as it promotes the health, happiness, and well-being of children.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As CR\u2019s Michael Volpe writes on the foundation:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>It supports trendy, left-wing causes that contend America is a hopelessly racist country, along with groups that wage war on the free markets that the great capitalist Kellogg championed while alive. Kellogg would naturally approve of the foundation\u2019s modern-day funding of hospitals, community centers, and children\u2019s welfare organizations. But he never used his foundation to promote his politics which were apparently right of center for his times.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So, just what are some of those \u201ctrendy\u201d left-wing causes and organizations? The report reveals a long list of them, including ties to the Clintons and anti-American billionaire George Soros.<\/p>\n<p>The foundation has, for instance, donated millions to the Mexican nationalist organization, La Raza \u2014 the group founded to \u201creclaim\u201d the southwestern United States for Mexico. In 2015, the foundation gave $2,400,000 to the National Council of La Raza for \u201cgeneral operating support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some of the money given to various La Raza and similar outfits are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>$125,000 to El Centro De Igualdad y Derechos (The Center for Equality and Rights) in Albuquerque<\/li>\n<li>$400,000 to La Plaza De Encuentro (The Meeting Place) in Albuquerque<\/li>\n<li>$25,000 for the Latin American Youth Center in Washington, DC<\/li>\n<li>$204,000 National Hispanic Media Coalition<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Kellogg Foundation also has deep ties and associations with George Soros and the Clintons.
