Donor Listing Donor Listing 2018–2019 Annual Fund Operating Grants Endowment and Other Special Gifts Council at 100 Campaign 1 Philanthropy at the Council on Foreign Relations The Council on Foreign Relations receives charitable contributions from a variety of private sources, including its members, corporations, and foundations. As the premier foreign policy organization in the United States, CFR plays a leading role in contributing to the intellectual momentum that is needed to address a broad spectrum of current and emerging problems, and unrestricted gifts to the Annual Fund help ensure the organization’s independence and nonpartisanship. Gifts to CFR are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by U.S. law and, in the case of individual members, are contributed over and above annual membership dues. Annual Fund Gifts to the Annual Fund account for 15 percent of the organization’s operating budget each year. This critical unrestricted revenue provides support for the Council’s meetings, research, website, and related activities. The Annual Fund surpassed $10.4 million this year, with 1,699 members participating. Our leadership group of Annual Fund benefactors, the Harold Pratt Associates (gifts from $25,000 to $49,999), had 232 members, and, of those, 93 members qualified as members of the Chairman’s Circle with their gifts of $50,000 or more. CFR is honored to acknowledge those members who supported the 2018–2019 Annual Fund in the list that follows. Many Council members leveraged their gifts by participating in matching gift programs, and sponsoring corporations and foundations are recognized here as well. 1 Chairman’s Circle Thomas S.

As we will show, these two seemingly unrelated upheavals are very closely tied together, and are but the latest and most profound manifesta- tions of a global revolutionary transfor- mation that has been under way for many years. Both of these revolutions are being stoked and orchestrated by elitist forces that intend to unmake the United States of America and extinguish liberty as we know it everywhere. In his famous “Lectures on the French Revolution,” delivered at Cambridge University between 1895 and 1899, the distinguished British historian and states- man John Emerich Dalberg, more com- monly known as Lord Acton, noted: “The appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult, but the design. Through all the fire and smoke we perceive the evidence of calculating organization.

  • With the Release of a ​New Television Ad​, the ​One-Year Anniversary Of
    Happy Monday! With the release of a new television ad, the one-year anniversary of Michael’s Ted Cruz ​ ​ ​ ​ takedown, the completion of our “Just The Truth” ad series, and new endorsements in New ​ ​ ​ Hampshire, Team Bennet has had a big week, and we can’t wait to fill you in! After hitting our New Hampshire Investment Strategy goal—thanks to your help!—Bennet for America launched a new television ad in New Hampshire to demonstrate why Michael is the best ​ candidate to beat Donald Trump and move the country forward. The ad — named “Two Weeks at a ​ Time” for Michael’s most viral tweet — makes clear why he is the opposite of Donald Trump: As ​ ​ ​ president, he’ll keep his head down and work hard so Americans can raise their families and live their lives. Please take a look and then share the ad far and wide! Last week, Michael picked up two new endorsements from prominent Granite Staters, New ​ ​ Hampshire State Representative and Assistant Majority Floor Leader Michael Cahill and Bow Selectman Harry Judd! This week, we also concluded our “Just The Truth” digital ad series, which we launched earlier ​ ​ ​ this month to share Michael’s personal story, experiences in leadership and service, and motivations underlying his run for president. Watch all 14 ads in the series here. ​ ​ The University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton Budget Model last week released an estimate of ​ ​ Michael’s tax plan in The Real Deal, verifying the accuracy of its revenue estimates and further demonstrating that Michael’s plan is fully paid for.

  • Virginia: Birthplace of America
    VIRGINIA: BIRTHPLACE OF AMERICA Over the past 400 years AMERICAN EVOLUTION™ has been rooted in Virginia. From the first permanent American settlement to its cultural diversity, and its commerce and industry, Virginia has long been recognized as the birthplace of our nation and has been influential in shaping our ideals of democracy, diversity and opportunity. • Virginia is home to numerous national historic sites including Jamestown, Mount Vernon, Monticello, Montpelier, Colonial Williamsburg, Arlington National Cemetery, Appomattox Court House, and Fort Monroe. • Some of America’s most prominent patriots, and eight U.S. Presidents, were Virginians – George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Zachary Taylor, and Woodrow Wilson. • Virginia produced explorers and innovators such as Lewis & Clark, pioneering physician Walter Reed, North Pole discoverer Richard Byrd, and Tuskegee Institute founder Booker T. Washington, all whose genius and dedication transformed America. • Bristol, Virginia is recognized as the birthplace of country music. • Virginia musicians Maybelle Carter, June Carter Cash, Ella Fitzgerald, Patsy Cline, and the Statler Brothers helped write the American songbook, which today is interpreted by the current generation of Virginian musicians such as Bruce Hornsby, Pharrell Williams, and Missy Elliot. • Virginia is home to authors such as Willa Cather, Anne Spencer, Russell Baker, and Tom Wolfe, who captured distinctly American stories on paper. • Influential women who hail from the Commonwealth include Katie Couric, Sandra Bullock, Wanda Sykes, and Shirley MacLaine. • Athletes from Virginia – each who elevated the standards of their sport – include Pernell Whitaker, Moses Malone, Fran Tarkenton, Sam Snead, Wendell Scott, Arthur Ashe, Gabrielle Douglas, and Francena McCorory.
