Open Society Foundations, the family philanthropy founded by investor George Soros, pledges $30 million to support organizations working to combat antisemitism and anti-Muslim hate. The funding is directed toward groups that address discrimination and harmful rhetoric targeting Jewish and Muslim communities, according to coverage of the announcement. The Independent and Winnipeg Free Press both report the same overall commitment and focus, describing the grant as part of the foundation’s broader efforts to counter hate and protect vulnerable communities.
The reports do not provide additional details on the specific grantees, geographic scope, or timeline for disbursement. They also do not outline separate funding amounts for antisemitism versus anti-Muslim initiatives. The announcement presents the pledge as a targeted response to rising concerns about intolerance toward both groups.
