, I'm excited to share the latest from CRC with you:

Why do big businesses like Walmart support left-wing causes? ([link removed]
Charitable giving by big businesses always seems to end up sliding to the left. Walmart is no exception. During the Bush years, the Walmart Foundation largely donated to right-of-center think tanks, particularly those advocating for charter schools. In the 2010s, Walmart Foundation ramped up its funding of left-wing groups and ended support for nearly all conservative groups. CRC's Shane Devine exposes the turnaround here ([link removed]
How long has George Soros been a troublemaker? ([link removed]
George Soros, financial colossus of the Left, first built a hedge fund empire and then a global nonprofit empire. Through his Open Society Foundations and his Central European University, he advocates for his idea of "open society."

How is a private charity helping veterans? ([link removed]
Thousands of American veterans have taken their own lives every year from 2008 to 2017. These tragic statistics are driven by multiple dimensions of trauma. Fortunately, REBOOT Recovery, a faith-based trauma recovery program, has helped more than 9,000 veterans and first responders--and their families--begin to heal. CRC's Robert Stilson reports on this remarkable success here ([link removed]
How will the pandemic change private giving and Americans' identity? ([link removed]
What are the roles of the public and private sectors in securing the country's well-being? How much should those two sectors interact? Civic Gifts, a timely book by a University of Chicago sociology professor, describes how Americans have asked and answered these questions throughout U.S. history. CRC's Michael E. Hartmann reviews the book through the lens of the coronavirus pandemic here ([link removed]
